MAKE BIG PLANS

#FootstepsofGREATNESS [5c]

How about people who return evil for good and innocent people who get hurt for helping other people or people who get up by your help and forget you?

These type of people are around us everywhere - schools, workplaces, churches, markets, neighbourhood, etc. They were there before you and I were born and will be there after us. BUT

There is a way to go  and it has two lanes.

FIRST, MAKE BIG PLANS
I once came across this quote: "make big plans; do not make small plans. Big plans attract big people,  small plans attract small people and small people cause big problems"

Let me say upfront that big people are not always the top executives in board boardrooms of blue chip organizations and small people are not always the inconspicuous nobodies in the corner of low class neighbourhoods.

It is possible to be 'small' and yet be a 'conspicuous' leader of an organization and it is possible to be 'big' and yet look like a no-name guy at the corner of the street.

BIG PEOPLE are big because they solve BIG PROBLEMS and small people are small because they cause big problems.

Beware of small people particularly when you are desperate for a job, spouse, money, friends, class, anything.

Small people use people and leave them hurt no matter how well they pretend to be helpers.

=They use people as human shields for defence against attacks

=They use people as human machines for mass production of goods

=They rely on people as human cows for their milk and meat

They depend on people as human sacrifice for their atonement and enjoyment.

They walk on people and ignore human needs in their search for self satisfaction

People users may appear conspicuous for a period but they eventually fade away. History has seen many of them as dictators, warlords, and task masters. People users never become outstanding or truly Great.

The best way to avoid small people and to manage them if you are currently caught in their web is to make BIG PLANS
Big plans swallow up small people.

The BIGGEST plan you can ever make is the plan to line up with GOD'S PLAN for YOU. Such plan will attract the ALMIGHTY GOD and his HEAVY WEIGHT on your side.

That brings me to the second lane.....
