By Jason Grant  Planning Ahead  Some days I sit high in a cloud, surrounded by all my thoughts, ranging from short-term plans to long-term goals and of course, the bad ideas that constantly attempt to worm their way into the good ones.  Well, hello there!  What's going on in that powerful, beautiful, majestic mind of yours? feeling indecisive? lost? or helpless?  My dear one, you are not alone. Have no fear because all the answers are deeply rooted within  you or you just might need to find new inspiration and motivation to build your drive and focus on achieving all that you desire. This is what I found out just from watching motivational YouTube videos and listening to and reading audio books that are geared towards self-help and development. It is no secret that the enemy within us will oftentimes try to convince us that we are incapable of achieving our goals. I am here to tell you that you should just take the risk, give it your all, and make your plans a reality.  This is the

At that moment, I took a brief pause  and I thought to myself, what if all that is holding me back could be cut loose if I pushed a little harder against it  all? As I continued on my way home, I started to put together a plan in my mind and think about how to  start at the break of dawn the next day.  A lot of people wish they had it all figured out, planned, organized and ready to be executed, but  Sometimes we are held back by situations that arise causing us to lose focus on what the ultimate goa
