The article "Be Your Own Architect!" talks about attraction, it was written by Adebola Oni.
There is hardly anyobdy reading this that will not know who an architect is.
If you have built a condo before or seen/know anyone who has built one, you will not find it hard to understand the work of an architect. As we all know, an architect is a perosn that designs the plan of a condo before it is built.
He sits down to take brief of his/her client and help transfer the client’s brief into a workable plan.If there is a job you need to be good at dear friend, it is the job of an archtiect. I am not saiyng when you want to build your own house; you should draw the plans yourself.
No!
What is at stake is bigger and far from building codno. There is a building that we all need to be good at planning for and threeby transferring our own brief into action. The planning for this building is often neglected by not a few and it is what determines what reuslt we get. This building is our own life! We must learn to draw a plan for our own lives.I have an uncle who happens to be an architect and I used to be fascinated at the amount of time and energy he devotes to drawing a plan of a client’s condo. At times, I hear him speak out loud to no one in particular follwoed by a lot of gesticulations.
Unfortunately, majority of us do not put enough time and energy into planning our lives like the professional arhcitects. It is saddening seeing persons live their lievs without a plan. Most persons who are living out a plan, are unfortunately living out other people’s plnas for their lives. The greatset joy one can have is to live according to one’s plan.
Setting your plan and living it out brings an inner peace you can describe and this cannot be experienced if you are living without plans or living another person’s plan for your life. Living other people’s plans for our lives always lead to discomfiture and absolute frustration later in life.When an architect is about to draw the plan of a house, he takes so many things into consideration, which may mean little or nothing to a lay boy. Same goes for us.
Nobody knows us better than we know ourselves therefore nobody should know what is better for us than ourselves.
If I were to draw the plan of a house, I will draw it according to how I wish it will be but an architect will not make such a mistake.
He will draw it according to how it should be drawn putting into consideration so many factors. If you are gonig to plan your own life, will you put in things that will inconvenient you later in life?
Will you draw up a plan to do things that you know will not be of any use to you?If you decide to put the plan of your life in someone else’s hand, then you are courting trouble in the future. Nobody knows you more than you know yourself. I may just be seeing your shining face but I don’t really know who or what you are inside. I may not know your abilities and your weaknesses, so asking me or anybody else to help design your life is going to be a mistake that will surely lead to regret later in your life. You know your potentials and your inner dreams more than anybody else and you are the best person who can plan and design your life and future.When you design your life in line with your dremas and abilities and things don’t seem to be working out according to the plan, you can still alter the plan for the “original copy” is still with you but if it somebody else’s plan you are living, changing may not be that not hard. If you are living other people’s dreams and things don’t work out as planned, you will still take the balme. So why don’t you assume the responsibility of becoming an architect of your own life.Nobody has the right to know how your life should be spent except you; not your parents, so many parents have misled their wards just by telling them they know what is good for them.
Not even your relatives, friends, boss or any other livnig creature. If it is going to be, it is up to you. You have a choice to design your life and live according to the palns or borrow someone else’s. It is your choice!
It is up to you and you should know that it is the end that justifies the means.PLEASE TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR LIFE! Adebola Oni is the Autohr of "The Lessons Of Life".
