Four years and two days later, everything was crossed off my map, got everything I PLANNED for, at a time most guys had no idea you could even do that.
Hi Gordon,

That sounds like a great approach!

Without a "plan" or a "map"... where will you end up?

Who knows! You could end up anywhere!

But... with a plan... you're more likely to end up at a destination you want to be at...

As you know, one thing Harvey Brody teaches is planning... He once told me, he doesn't do things "by the seat of his pants"...

Sure, some people do it that way. It may seem more exciting. But if you want to make the big bucks at the end... Well, the "seat of the pants" method is less likely to get you there...

Thanks for sharing,

Dien
