Self-Directed Planning

[unspeakablehorror]

I think self-directed planning is so important for accomplishing things. And by that I mean whatever it is you may want to accomplish, whether it is personal or political. So taking some time to think about how you approach planning is just in general a good idea.

Any good plan has to account for your own resources or lack thereof, your own particular strengths and weaknesses, your own particular situation. Other people can sometimes give helpful advice, but that advice must be filtered by you to assess its applicability to you. And a person who has good advice for you in one area may not have good advice in another. Explore broadly what others have to say, but make your plans your own by incorporating your own knowledge of yourself, which is an essential component of any plan.
