When it comes to setting of objectives and planning to achieve goals I live a life compared to a machine or robot. in the sense that one of the primary reason of my existence, the one thing that keeps me going everyday, everyday has always been about what I need to achieve. which simply means my life is goal driven. planning of my activities ahead reduce the rate at which I get anxious about what is next. this act has become a character of mine or should I say a way for me to peak into the future ahead. like they say "if you fail to plan, you will plan to fail." Every act and step is all spelt out in my mind in details, it doesn't always work out as planned but I still know what to do if doesn't.
This year started on a different note because majority of activities I will be engaging this year were already spelt out since last year, which did not give room for me to set new goals or probably come up with some sort of new year resolution. A tradition many hold dear. it seems this year is all about going with the flow for me and hope everything goes as planned which is quite funny because it is not my kind of thing. I have set of goals and objectives for this year but unlike other years that I have every step written down, none of that is happening this year or should I say for now, I have no idea when my inner self will kick in. Not caring about the details of my plan means getting anxious of uncertainty of the future would not be the case for me this year.

The future has always been a mystery to me, it has a lot of unexplainable things attached to it. it predictions is beyond humans imagination. So what if all I have planned this year end up not working out, what if things take a different turn than what I have imagined? it would not have any effect on me because living with this uncertainties is what makes us humans. they say "Life is what happens when we are busy doing other things" Which means not everything we go as planned, it has been this way for generations so nothing will change now.
I will go with the flow and get other things done, instead of being paralysed by self pity. I prefer to keep going. I would not waver, over the years not having things my way had become a part of the plan. I believe as humans we can't always have everything figured out, coping with mysteries and uncertainties is all part of human development, it adds to our experience, it makes living more adventurous. what is the point of life if everything is all figured out? wouldn't that take the fun out of living?

You aren't the only one whose plan is to go with the flow, hehehe.
Let's take the year as it comes.
I like the markdowns you used, can I borrow them? 😀
It seems we are birds of this same feathers 😅.
Feel free to borrow them😅
This is an interesting self-reflection and I like where you said that "we can't always have everything figured out".
That's very relatable and it's a feature that defines us as humans, especially when we are working towards a long-term goal.
Even when we think we have it all worked out, a little twist of things can have a massive impact on the whole plan. That's a rough thing to even think about, but we have to be prepared for that moment and the approach of not worrying too much about something that isn't yielding desired result is a good one to take on.
I hope this year turns into a good one for us
Thanks for joining this challenge.
Expecting the unexpected is all part of life and accepting the fact that not everything we plan will always go our way is something every human must acknowledge.
I apologize for the late reply, I have been having issues with some of hive frontends.

Ohhh... The Hive frontends have been a big issue throughout the week. Several APIs are having issue. Hehe.
Have an awesome week, Bro.
It sure would take the fun out of living. .. and you are right. When growth occurs, so do experiences, so that's very nice.
You've had things set out the year before, so it is very nice to work towards things aligned and just like you've said, "not waver" when life sets its feet on you.
Yeah you are right, life might not hive us what we want but it surely gives us what we need.
Thanks for stopping by 🤗
That's how life is. The uncertainty part of it.
Yeah it is

You are right, *life is what happens when we are busy planning other things * Not everything in our plan book will come as planned however, we have to be prepared with a plan B as not to get too worried in the end.
We are flow with the year, we are ready for what ever life plans to give us
Exactly, we should always be ready to accept the unexpected.
Thanks for stopping by 🤗
Yes... many times, we make plans but then life just happens when we least expect...and we just go with the flow... That was me last year, hehehe 😅
Yeah that is true and I will be doing the same this year 😅
Yay! 🤗

Right said dear as humans we will try our best to put things in place but most times we can't figure everything we need to be patient with our goals.
#dreemerforlife
Yes exactly, we shouldn't apply too much pressure on ourselves.

From your write to, you seem to be a detailed person and loves to plan everything he is doing, and that's good though, I mean I am the opposite of that, although working on doing better this year.
It's a good plan, instead of dwelling on something you couldn't achieve, move to the next option available and face it.
Also, although we all think about positivity and having success in everything we do or plan but then, we forget that this is life and as such, we can not always have everything go our way, most times, that one thing out of one hundred things has to go the other way, for the next person, this here is the fun of life.
Well planning helps me focus on what matters and it increases my productivity.
Yeah you should because when you plan your goals it makes it a lot easier to achieve.
I guess life is what happens when we are busy planning other things.🤗
I appreciate your thoughtful comment, Thanks for stopping by 🤗
You are indeed right, planning helps one focus.
You are welcome
I would say, go with the flow of what you've planned. Don't give up even when things are not going your way. Pray for it to happen, and make sure you're not just praying but working toward it. You know God answers prayers, and that way, you can communicate with God through prayers.
When life shows you pepper and you give up on things, you're showing that your dreams and goals are not worth fighting for. And what are you to do? Show life you're not someone it can mess with; show life you're its boss and in control. Don't stop when it becomes hard; keep going when it becomes hard until it's easy.
Sometimes what you need is a change of mindset, and then you'll realize that what you think changes everything. That's why I always fill myself with positivity, and my faith in God brings me joy and the zeal to make things happen.
Congratulations 🥳

Living with a rigid expectacy out of life ruins our enjoyment and hinders us from touching real potential.
Going with the flow, I like that a lot
#dreemerforlife
Yeah it those, planning should not be too rigid, there should be room for compromise.
Thanks for stopping by 🤗
Keeping the drive alive is important, who knows, that may be the only thing require to fulfill the goal at the end. Some would say giving up is not an option.
I popped in from #dreemport
Truly giving up is not an option but their should be room for breaks in order to re-strategize.
