In Search Of The Factors That Cause Inspiration In Planning

By Kim Warrior


As humans, there are influences present within us that urge us to do particular tasks. They might also give us an idea on what to produce. It is these influences that we talk about as our inspiration. It is our drive and motivation to ensure a task is done to its very end.

On the other hand, planning involves coming up with a set of related activities all meant towards achieving a desired objective. It is conducted while keeping in mind a desired goal. This serves to regularly remind the planner of the activities he committed to do in his future as he goes about his routine.

A true warrior is known to plan. But where does the motivation to do so come from? The happiness and contentment one derives from a life with order and organization is a good place to start. With knowledge of such benefits, and the ability to have control over his life, a true warrior will forever plan.

This is a very open secret amongst athletes as is evidenced by the tireless preparations they undergo in preparation for a completion. Mo Farah is a perfect example of this, travelling thousands of kilometers from the UK to Kenya for special training, months before he is set to compete. This however does boost his performance as a long distance runner and marathoner to champion status.

As daily warriors then, our actions should be in such a way that they are always planned. That we are always working towards a desired objective. Attainment of these objectives together with the promise of improved performance should always be our motivation while planning and implementing our plan. On doing this we shall not only become true warriors but champions as well in our own way leading happier and more fruitful lives in the process.

Communication is also significant to a warrior plan. Letting those close to you know of your plans and those that will be affected by them, whether it is your spouse, business partner, team mate etc. Is an absolutely important task. More so it has an impact in pushing you to stick to your plans as others now know of it and they will be expecting you to do so. To make you plans known to these close circle also shows that you love them enough to include them in your plans. They will love you more for it.

While planning also, we should take into account the objectives. The goals are very essential in motivating the planner to keep track of his/her actions while also correcting and reviewing them over time to ensure they remain in line with what is planned. By regularly correcting and reviewing the plan and with, well defined, attainable and intelligent goals, we shall have made good plan and engrained in ourselves the spirit of actualizing it.

Last but not least, are emotions. They are another motivating factor that should encourage us to do so. The expectations we have, joy, sadness, happiness etc. Will all influence our planning. Imagine for a second, your future, what do you expect? What more can you achieve should you work harder for it? Your expectations must be building up already. Now imagine what would occur if you decided not to work harder and plan? Not a chance right?
