Love the last line

YES! Your statement is just in sync with my article "The perfect plan has no plan"!

I love the last line.....

Having a plan is being afraid to succeed.

This is contrary to popular belief, people think that not having a plan is rather synonymous with failure. However, I'm not disputing the popular belief but I like it when sth is different from the norm, I like it when sth does not really have to obey the status quo.
This is thought provoking and possible to does who believe it is. Well done @pinacle for challenging our thoughts

Its true philosophy and phtography

nice bungalow within the nature

Its beautiful photography.

There is no short cut to success. Hard work and being brave will give you success.Nice photography.

This isn't philosophy. It reeks of pseudo-intellectualism, a quote so vague it can mean anything to anyone.

thaanks for your great post about secret of success..

Secret to success

> Humility

Well actually it isn't like that. Plan is the first step of success. Planing right sort of thing will lead you to success if you work very hard to achieve. And yes I agree being greedy is what spoils your success. Make a plan, make an aim, make a target and make a to do list and thre we go rest is hard work and determination.

Good post. :)

If it's for you then it will be yours but if it's not then work hard for it. Take it by force.

Success in itself is dynamic. Who ever fail to plan, plan to fail. Success is preparation meets expectation. When you are prepared for the success ahead, you can easily attain and sustain it when it comes.

Hi. Life Proyect. All my professional life (more than 20 years) orients based on the life project.
The life project implies goals, objectives and strategies. In my life apply a life project, achieve the highest degree as a teacher and counselor in a university.
Today, I live a critical situation in my country, the project of life had to change.
My project has several simultaneous and above all spiritual aspects.
The control element ceased to be an instrument. What do you want to control? If everything depends on the environment. Then the existence depends on the environment

Nice shots, love the last one so much

Absolutely, success has a strange let fall.. It will come when know one expects it... So let it come, be patient... Great thought..and nice clicks..

There is always a plan, since you decide tonight that tomorrow you will get out of bed and go to work hard, you are already planning, so, yes, there is always a plan, one more elaborate than others, but plan after all. Nothing is left to random. Success is the result of reaching your goals, and if you set to goal, you have had to consider how to achieve it, and that, my dear friend, is a plan for success.

Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice and most of all, love of what you are doing or learning to do.

That's why you have to go for it.

very inspiring ... hopefully a lot of writing like this, because the inspiration is like water that can not be dammed.

It is a very deep and indeed debatable phrase because most think that success is the result of a process of constancy, responsibility and hard work. But as everything and as I have always thought it will depend on the perspective of each one.

so making plans is pure mind-game... vs. having a complete trust with the Universe?
and how do we take necessary steps without planning, then? (say you want to travel to other country for example)

Having no plan is planning to fail. A plan isn't a limiter and "Not having a plan" is pretty much impossible. A plan is merely a prediction of likely events and responses. To not plan you would have to leave time and causality behind. Also we have scientifically demonstrated that IQ and Conscientiousness are the largest predictors of success. Yes science has literally proven that smart, hard work is the path to success (also called planning) and it likely comes as no surprise to anyone reading this.

Now I get you are trying to tell people to stop worrying and let life unfold before their eyes, beautiful things will happen. This isn't because planning is bad but that we are too limited to be coming up with comprehensive enough plans to make everything work our perfectly and the act of planning too often gets conflated with the act of worrying and thus can make life less fulfilling.

This is more a call for adaptable well construed plans that aim at things that are good for the planner (Which is the vast minority of plans). So stop chewing the inside of your cheek, worrying is useless. But also if you don't want to be that drugged out homeless man who sits in a carboard box with a bamboo fishing pole with the cup for a hook and a joke written on the box in sharpie, planning is definitely something you should consider, as everyone else is planning on not being that guy and if you say, "not it" last you are it. Simple as that. we will make you into that archtype in our effort not to make ourselves into that archtype. So it would be in your best interest to to make yourself surpass that archtype too.

A better way of looking at it is "Failure is to be expected, success is exceptional"
