I have been blessed with a great life. My family, my career, my personal passions, you name it... People often ask me how I have done it. Personally I think the answer is pretty simple. It's all about having a plan... We have all heard "Plan your work and work your plan". I believe it's that simple. Whether you plan a weekend drive, a vacation or a goal of any kind you usually start out with a destination in mind. This summer we spent a week in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware with my wife's parents, brothers and sisters and their children. We had an OUTSTANDING time but it wasn't without a lot of planning. Sure, we ended up at our destination but it was the plan and the planning that got there and back. Our trip was a huge SUCCESS. In life whether it be professional or personal I believe that "the ingredients to success" can be defined as:
1. Understand your CORE requirements (What are you trying to accomplish)
2. Learn to execute them flawlessly (Learn everything you can about what it is you want to get done)
3. Never quit
