We need to prepare for the future.
We know it all too well.
But how many of us are systematically preparing for it?
It's not easy to prepare for the future because of the difficult realities of the immediate future.
The future could be hours from now, it could be tomorrow, it could be a month from now,
a year from now. We need to think five and ten years ahead.

How well am I preparing for the future?
Not so much.
It's easy to worry about life after retirement.
If you retire right away, you'll struggle with your monthly expenses.
I'll need to work again to make ends meet.
That's my reality.

We remember when we were students.
If you studied and prepared for midterms and finals, you could get good grades.
But there are many times when you didn't study, played, and then stayed up all night studying for a test.
The closer you get to retirement, the more rushed you feel.

Make a plan and prepare.
A weekly plan, a monthly plan, a yearly plan, and a retirement plan.
Make a plan for self-improvement.
And follow through.
Life seems like a long time, but it goes by in a flash.
Don't waste your time, use it meaningfully.

A person who prepares for the future is a wise person.
