Road Maps

"A good plan is like a road map; it shows the final destination and usually the best way to get there." - H. Stanley Judd

 
In the race of life, we are all running towards the finish line. Whether it be to reach the summit of the corporate ladder, to successfully flourish in business, to be a successful professional or happily get married and blessed with children, we all have an ultimate destination to go to and that is to attain happiness. To get there faster, we can’t rely on gut feel alone. This is similar to a trip going to Baguio for the first time. It will definitely take a huge chunk of time just by driving around without knowing the easiest way to get there. That’s what road maps are made for.

Road maps are created because there are already people who’ve been there and to be able to show you the ways to arrive at your destination. But there are lots of bad maps and good maps out there. The bad maps are very confusing, disorganized and would take a lot of time for you to get to success. Good maps, on the other hand, are very clear, organized and, if followed, would be able to bring you to success faster.  

That's why in life, always be on the lookout for the good maps: those that will not always give you the shortest route, or might be loaded with speed bumps or obstacles, but will definitely give you lots of wisdom and experience as you arrive at the destination.
