Things Don't Always Turn Out The Way We Planned

If things went my way, I would've graduated college at age 22 which would've been around year 2003.  I still would've been married around age 25 which would been around year 2007.  Well, I ended up going into the military which I had no plans of ever joining.  I got out in year 2003.  That squashed my plans of graduation around that time frame.  I got married in 2005 and "We Stiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiill Together!!"

So, thing didn't go the way I "wanted".  Oh well.  With the way things turned out so far, there's no need to regret anything.  I'm very happy with the way things are so far.  At this point, I barely say this, but I am very proud of myself for not completely throwing away my initial plans.  They might not have went the way planned initially, but with a few modifications, everything went alright.  I guess it would be nice for everything in your life to go the way you plan.  It's good to do a little planning every now and then.  In my opinion, it's a little difficult to start a 10 year plan when your 12.

I do plan on sticking to my current 15 year plan:

1. Renewed my vows at least once or twice.
2. Obtain my MBA and PE license.
3. Have all debt paid in full.
4. Have both kids out of the house and in school on their way to do better than their parents.  (I'm rooting for you both!!)

Not so much to ask for.  We'll see.....
