Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? As modern life become more complex, it is essential for young people to have the ability to plan and organize.
With the fast rolling wheels of the modern world, the complexity of study and work requires people, especially the youth, to develop strong ability in planning and organizing. From my personal perspective, without such abilities, young people can hardly make through their study, let alone succeed in the future.
First of all, good planning and organizing ability can improve productivity and efficiency. A few minutes plan before study or work can help us reduce aimless and meaningless actions. Here is an example of my own. At the end of every semester, I always run into a rushing time, because I have to prepare for the examinations, finish several papers, and close some research report. It is quite easy to get lost in such a busy time. Thus, I started to learn planning strategically to improve my efficiency. According to priorities of things, I would establish a “to do” list and tick off the items as I move forward. In this way, I can manage my time and solve multiple problems at the same time. In short, careful and effective planning and organizing will have a huge impact on us young people’s lives.
Secondly, to plan and organize ahead help us reduce crisis in our actions. If we deliberate possible difficulties and be well organized to respond swiftly, we can be prepared and confident in doing things. For instance, students at university are often assigned to finish a synthetic and complex project instead of simple homework. When doing the project, students will certainly come across many situations that require immediate reactions, such as sudden advancing of deadline. Also, to accomplish a complex project, they need to take many factors into consideration. So the ability to organize is requisite.
Finally, we can overcome our bad habits and fulfill our goals if being well planned and organized. In a world like a kaleidoscope, young people may not be able to achieve their goals; those worse may even go astray into wrong road. For example, when searching information for papers on the Internet, some teenagers may be distracted by other irrelevant information and surf around the net without really accomplishing anything. However, if they have established a plan to stick to and organize each step to follow the plan, they can focus on their mission and are less likely to go astray.
To sum up, as the modern life is getting increasingly complex, the ability to plan and organize helps people a lot. And us the young people, with our dream to be realized and goals to be conquered, such ability is undoubtedly a sharp and powerful weapon we must be armed with.
