Some individuals think that it is a waste of time to
plan
 for
future
Correct article usage
the future
show examples
 and It is more crucial to focus on
present
Add an article
the present
show examples
. I completely disagree with
this
 statement because I am convinced It will help them not only achieve their
goals
 but
also
 have their dream life.
Firstly
,
people
 have a lot of different aims that they want to achieve in their lifetime.
For example
, students in the USA have to pass SAT exam in order to go to university, which is why having a good
plan
 for
that is
 the first step. If they won't have any
plan
 for that it is more likely that they will fail their exam and won't have time to redo it because
people
 can take
this
 exam only till they are 20 years old.
Furthermore
, if a person wants to become an Olympic champion having a great schedule is essential and it will help to attain their goal
due to
 well structured day and clear directions on what they have to do.
On the other hand
, there are some
people
 who say that living in the present without any
plan
 for the future and enjoying the moment is the best for them. They say that
people
 set unachievable
goals
 and they will never get what they want. In my opinion, it can be solved by setting little
goals
 in the beginning and taking them step by step which will lead to achieving a big goal in the end. I believe
this
 will help
people
 so much on their journey to the life they desire. In conclusion,
although
 some
people
 think it is better to just focus on the present and enjoy every moment, I am convinced it is always important to have a structured
plan
 for the future so
people
 can see their
goals
 clearly and know what to do to attain their
goals
.
