Planning


Benjamin Franklin said "failing to plan is planning to fail."  I do not know the situation upon which he offered this witticism, but it is apropos for me today.

Next week is the 13th anniversary of 9/11 and as I consider my work for Never Forget Foundation, I am still being asked which schools and where I will be at as my itinerary is put together for me.  I am amazed by the details that go into whether or not we speak at a given school or attend a particular event, but that is what life is I guess...jumping from one event to another and hopefully planning ahead for the contingencies at each location.

In any case, it i keeping me busy as I get to consider opportunities and say yes or no while figuring out will I have time to grab something to eat in between event after event sequentially so that we can make the most of limited time.

In any case, I hope you are considering your remembrance of 9/11, even if you do not have the planning that goes with.  Obviously it is a critical date for me, but I hope we do not let it just become another day on the calendar.
