To be clear, as stated in the opening to my article, I didn't write this to minimize the importance of clear plans and goals. Of course, that is half the equation.

The thing is, too often people get caught in this “planning” stage and never take any important action towards the realization of their goal.

This article was meant to push those people into gear.

I truly believe that through action, it is exponentially easier to understand what it takes to be successful in your specific endeavor.

You can't figure everything out from the drawing board.

Planning can sometimes lead to other doors opening. He (Bill Cullen) goes onto to say ''is there a thing called luck, or is luck simply when preparation meets opportunity''.

It is a hard practice to learn, definitely sounds and reads very easy but in reality and with the roller-coaster ride of being an entrepreneur and in business, the doubt and emotions can get the best of us.
