In life, a you can either be a person that loves to plan every thing, your day, your activities, your routines, and have everything structured. or a person that just goes with the flow and do the right things... For me, I'm that person that is neither here nor there...
The truth is, I'm on both sides of this particular fence. When I turned 18, color-coded planners became my thing... I used to use them to write out every plan i have for the day and stick them on the door of my room or on my laptop... I assigned every task i had for the day to most hours... I planned even down to the time i would have to take a break or take a quick nap.
I was so structured and sometimes it felt like I was programmed, and when any of my plans changed at the last minute, it felt like everything was going to collapse... Having a structured routine was not only my thing... it was security.
As I grew older, living in a new City after my university days... I began to learn and enjoy the freedom that comes from having to do things anytime you want without the feeling of failure or unaccomplishment because of missing out on what was planned for the day.
So, for me, I would say i'm a mix of both structured routine and a more spontaneous approach to life... This in my opinion is the best way to approach life. There are times when planning and being structured makes the most sense, while there are times when you just have to go with the flow and be more spontaneous... it is in the riding with the flow and the spontaneous approach that some of the best things are done or some of the best ideas are formed, or some of the best inspirations comes.
Not everything in life requires being too rigid and too structured... and at the same time, not everything in life requires being too spontaneous... it is always important to find a balance to life a better life and be better in everything you do as a person.
