Proverbs 21:5

“The plans of the diligent lead to profit as surely as haste leads to poverty.”  Proverbs 21:5 NIV

Proper planning for life’s opportunities results in a more successful result than rushing into things without thinking them through.  Often we find others rushing us to make decisions.  “If you don’t grab this opportunity today” they say, “you may miss it forever”.  I say that if it is an idea not worthy of giving thought and concern to, it probably is not worth pursuing.  Take time, weigh both the benefits and disadvantages.  Worthy projects will always still be around after careful consideration.  Projects, not worthy of our time and/or money may disappear, and good riddance.  Better to let the “quick riches” pass, than regretting the lack of prudent planning.  Make good plans - then execute!   A Proverb for all areas of life.

Get Wisdom - Get Understanding!
