Greetings, everyone!

To start with, a man without vision is a dead man; a man without plans will trivialize every opportunity that comes his way and will have a blurred destiny.

Over the years, I have been making plans for my future, how it is going to be, where I will be, and where I will go; the kind of man I will marry, the number of children I want to have, and the type of work or job I will do. Where I will be determines whether I will be a joy to any generation.

However, as many plans as I have crystallized, I want to ensure that God is pleased with them. I also want to involve Him in every step of my life and plans so that I can have good success.

According to this contest topic, I will now state chronologically:

What are the personal pressures I have placed on myself?

In this life, if I want to succeed or become a great woman, I must put pressure on myself and take steps or actions that will produce tangible results, results that will be a blessing to me and to future generations.

One way I pressure myself is by reading books. As the saying goes, “readers are leaders.” Through this, I gain knowledge and can express myself with confidence and boldness. I can also push myself to learn a particular skill or take courses. There are many other things I can do to achieve my plans and present myself with confidence.

An important part is that I cannot live or pursue my goals excellently without the help of the Holy Spirit. He is the one who helps me to align and present my plans properly. I love God, and He loves me too. I must always depend on Him for direction and instruction.

How do I react when things don’t go as planned?

My reaction is not negative but positive. I keep pressing on and remain hopeful about the situation. I either speak positively about it or keep my faith alive, believing that it will work out. Sometimes, it may be that it is not the will of God, which is why the plan is not working. God has a way of turning things around.

Do I ever think that maybe I’m hard on myself?

Being hard on myself does not necessarily produce results. I can be hard on myself and still not be doing the right thing or going in the right direction.

Therefore, I must act, speak, and do the right things at the right time to achieve the right results for my future.

I love you all
