Why Plan ?
Most of the UK’s youth today are likely to experience:
• An average of 17 employment transitions
• A variety of occupations in up to five different sectors of the economy
• A variety of concurrent work roles
• Planned and unplanned gaps of no work

The ability to
see your goal
transforms your
life – otherwise
you will drift
like plankton in
the ocean…

In 1979, interviewers asked new graduates from the Harvard’s MBA Program and found that :
84% had no specific goals at all
13% had goals but they were not committed to paper
3% had clear, written goals and plans to accomplish them
In 1989, the interviewers again interviewed the graduates of that class.

The 13% of the class who had goals were earning, on average, twice as much as the 84 percent who had no goals at all.
Even more staggering – the 3% who had clear,
written goals were earning, on average, 10x as much as the other 97 percent put together.
