Many years ago people believed that "whatever will be, will be, the future's not for ours to see". In fact, these are the lyrics of a very popular song, "Whatever Will Be, Will Be" in the 60's and 70's. This song is no longer played or sung now because many people now realize that you can design your future, not whatever will be will be, and the first step is to plan your Personal Growth. Here's how you can plan your Personal Growth and achieve your desired riches in life ... Hope this is useful for personal growth planning in your work and life. Wong Yew Yip

What is My Personal Growth Plan?
My Personal Growth Plan
is my planning and management tool,
thinking systematically what I want my life and career to be,
planning the path for my aspirations and goals,
taking specific actions to obtain the best returns I can,
recording my reflections as I work my way through life,
and never losing sight of my desired destination

Reflections of My Life So Far

5. “If you are born poor it is not your mistake,
But if you die poor it is your mistake.”
~ Bill Gates

6. The choice
is in YOUR HANDS

7. If you plan and go after what you want,
you will spend your entire life getting what you want

8. “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” ~ Mark Twain
