Let's Talk About Words

        Antoine de Saint-Exupery was quoted as saying, "A goal without a plan is just a wish ." As little children we wish upon a star , or make one when blowing out our birthday candles, but how often do those wishes come true simply by wishing? As we grow up, we come to understand that to reach for your dreams , we must make a plan and then take steps towards achieving it. Wishing is enjoyable, and we should continue to do it, but to make your desires a reality though, you must turn that wish into a goal .

     Yogi Berra  said, "You got to be careful if you don't know where you're going, because you might not get there." Today's topic is similar to previous posts about discovering your passions and setting your goals. I even wrote about how the detours of life can still lead me where I want to go. This quote though of turning if I need to means that  sometimes life can present me with opportunities that weren't in my plan, but I should consider them. An example would be the offer to observe and train teachers in other centers for Bright Horizons . I never had that as a goal , but when the offer was presented, I said yes, and I absolutely love doing it. My advice to others would be to set your course but turn if you need to.
