My life plan is simplified into: there's has to be something new every year. It assures me that I don't waste a year for nothing. But how to orchestra a little bit here and there into an array of complete picture is merely out of question.
Not because that I don't believe in long term planning nor that I'm a type of man that live for the day. But it just due to the responsibility I chose and the consequences thereof.
Will you delay your future to secure the present? Even though the present is not for your convenience and you can't curb the future to come? For me the answer is yes.
Life indeed is choosing between options. And as Covey said, you free to choose the stick but you're not free to choose the other end of the stick. Meaning: no regret. Since this is the path that I picked and therefore the road I will take, wholeheartedly.
I know where the road ends but I don't know how much time it will take to reach the destination in this road, and worse: whether I arrived before the time is running up or there are other shorter roads available. They are called risks and nowadays we are taught to be able to manage the risks but we're allways a good teacher than a good pupil.
But gentlemen, what is the biggest risk in my plot? For sure I would never able to reach the destination. But isn't that the same risks everyone would encounter with? So what will I lose in this self-created game?
However, the game exists only to the greater game beyond our control. You can win in your own game but you're considered lose in the greater game simultaneously. And therefore you need to cope with the perceived necessity of winning the both games. Only if you can really honest with your self and possess a mountain of courages, you will ignore the greater game and only worry in your own game.
Now if you still read till this part, than at 32 I prove my old thesis:
to become old is to become complicated.
