Between plans and reality.

Heheheh simply making up things and going along seems like a disaster that’s imminent. How does someone ever live like that? It’s even hectic trying to put ones live together on the days when you think you have it all planned out how much more when you just get up and go. Go where? 🤣🤣🤣.

I have learnt by experience that having plans for your day and if you have the ability to probably extend it to weeks and even months, your life will be a little better than getting up daily and going. Though the scriptures says that a man heart plans his ways but the Lord directs his steps.

Yea, at least it all starts with a plan. Even if you have a regular Job that you work at and that requires daily waking up and going, you still have that part where you need to plan what and what you should achieve at work daily. There are still laid down goals and targets that gives the work some shape and structure.

I have learnt by experience that the days I just get up and wants to go, I get to going no where. Getting somewhere when I have my day planned out could require a whole lot of discipline. How much more when I don’t have any plans. So I just wake up and the day is there staring at me. I literally live through the day and at the end of it, I am wondering what I did with my day.

For example yesterday before I slept, I had to plan my day today on what and what I should do today and this particular prompt I am writing right now is part of my plan today. I told myself that I as going to make a post today and here I am on it.

Well, news flash is that I have spent a good part of today galavanting and just when it dawned on me that I have so much planned to do today and haven’t even scratched it, I had to hop on to this one. Once I get this done, I tick it out and unto the next.

Sometimes, I have plans that I follow through and some other times, it would take a whole lot of discipline from me to be able to even scratch my plans. Call me undisciplined fellow and I won’t even blame you. Discipline these days seem to be a lot of hard work for me especially since my health has really been on a scale lately.

I plan to wake up by 5am and I can barely keep my eyes open and these days I seem to have restless sleeps. I don’t know if it’s part of the side effects of the drugs I am taking. I was diagnosed with ulcer. Since then my life has not been the same. The side effects of these drugs are mad. Literally strong enough to keep you grounded with all other shenanigans.

So I literally make plans for my day and once I pop those drugs through my mouth, the drugs seems to have other plans. So do I have time to even sit down and assess any risks now? Maybe when I am off this medication and get my life back, I would know but for now, I think I may just be living on that edge where I want to just live and hope for the best.

Ordinarily, I wouldn’t say that’s what I usually am. I like to plan, weigh things and hope the plans come through as against just doing things and hoping for the best. Who builds a house without first counting the cost?

Well, like I said, I plan my daily life right now while allowing the other things that I have no influence over to help tilt it while I hold the reins and try to restrain. Until I am after this phase which may still lay for another three weeks plus, I’d just be content with the daily planning and getting up and going as much as I can while I hope for the best.

I can be a planner, access risks, pay attention to details or just be the one who gets up and goes depending on the situation I find myself in.
