When developing myself as an individual, it is important that I focus on what I am doing and why I am doing it. For this reason, I think it is important that I reflect on my future and set goals for that I want to achieve in life. I believe it is important to take time out to eventuate what is going on in life to be able to plan for the future correctly. This being said, I also think it is important for a person to have an open mind when thinking out their future. There are some opportunities that some up that were not planned for and taking them would be a risk. These are sometimes the best decisions a person can make a calculated risk that they never expected to happen. For this reason, I think that a person should have a delicate balance of planning when it comes to their future and an open mind to the different opportunists that they did not plan.
