In order for us to make our plans work, we need to craft or design specific project in order to reach our desired goal. Let us take writing into consideration to become more specific. I have known that some of us here are doing good in writing on a particular or several sites. Others have their own blog and earn considerable amount from those sites.
I would like to also to be successful in writing, however, I know that my knowledge on this field is very limited. So I am doing it on a trial and error method. Relative to this, I would like to solicit the opinion of our friends here on how to use SEO and how to increase the views to my articles.
Thank you and have a nice day!

First and foremost we should make down to earth plans. They should have all the trimmings that make them possible. It is not difficult to pick plans that are within our reach unless unforeseen external factors topple them.

Nothing is reachable so easy even if one sees possibilities on the horizon. If your plans are that you want to fly, now that could indeed be an impossible dream. But strangely there are some who have dreams as queer as wanting to fly!

Hi allknowing!
Thank you for sharing your thought on this matter. I appreciate you for giving that input.
@ riyauro: Everybody is entitled to his own opinion.
Have a nice day to both of you.

Hi I have read all the responses and I have seen that they talking about keeping the plans with your reach and down to earth. I am sorry but I am gonna be different here. I have been taught to keep plans and goals as high and sky but now it is beyond the sky is the limit. .. when you have high goals, you will work hard for it and be there least to least 90% but at least closer. if you keep it low, then if you do not achieve it, it will be even lesser. so better keep it high.
I can understand that not every work suit everyone but yes you have to see where you are best. work hard and plans will work for you if you set high goals in life. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead..

Hi riyauro!
I know that we maybe looking things on a different angle. So every part is important to make a whole. It is not important on how little or big our part is. What is important is we did it on our best abilities. And you are a big part of the discussion. So I am giving you a big hug for the response.
Let's aim high! Thank you for sharing!

Hi riyauro,
I won't disagree with you and your opinions. But there are two factors while setting goals and I am sure you will agree that there are pros and cons to both of them.
I will keep it short for lack of time.
Firstly if high goals are set and they aren't fulfilled, one may get frustrated and into depression. The positive side is that the failure to attain such high goals can be seen as an inspiration to try harder.
As far as setting realistic and down to earth goals are concerned, again there are two sides.
If the goals are fulfilled, then one might get complacent and procrastinate things. Secondly, attaining goals can also work in favor where one is pegged on to work faster and higher due to success.
So, it is for oneself to find out a mean keeping an eye on one's abilities.

I think there are two most important things one should remember when trying to make the plans work in our favor - the first is to set realistic goals and the second is remaining down to earth. Not competing with your friends is equally important. If 'Mr. XYZ can do this thing, so can I', is a totally wrong attitude. Everyone is different and is blessed with different 'powers'. It is better to remain inside the horizons of that power.
Setting realistic goals is very important to make plans work. If you are talking about some online experience or setting a target that you have to achieve in a month's time, chalk out how much time is at your disposal and how honestly you can peruse the goals.
Now coming to your question. I think you are making a wrong comparison and that is why you are downplaying your own abilities. The people, whomsoever you are referring to by saying that they are earning good or have enough knowledge to write articles, are the people who are the 'experts' in their respective fields.
For example, I have good and enough knowledge of the game of cricket. So, I will obviously start a blog (if ever I have to) on cricket and not on football. I am so poor in football, I don't even know the names of the clubs and the players. So, if I write a critical article on a certain match or a player about cricket, you may think that I am an 'expert' in cricket. So, what I want to say is people are attempting to write things that they are comfortable with. And I am sure that there are at least a couple of things that you know in precise details and have the ability to advise someone.
So, starting a blog or writing articles on such topics will be best for you. Just introspect and you will find that there are tons of things you have to write and you will be lost for time. There was a time when I went through your phase, but I found that Bollywood - Hindi cinema industry here in India and cricket are the two things I am comfortable writing with. I don't need to do a lot of research and I can easily write 300-400 word article on any current topic.
If you also do the same, it will no doubt increase your confidence, the way it has helped me.
And finally, I am sorry, I don't really know a lot of SEO. That is why I write on current topics with important keywords in the title of the article and the first few lines. That's only what I can tell you at the moment. I hope this helps!!!

Ah common, I just kept on saying what thoughts occurred to me. But if they are going to be helpful to you, I would consider myself fortunate. Why I said you need to see what time is at your hands because you had once said that you are full time job and that you cannot give enough time to you other activities. Now that is one point I forgot to mention before.
Good luck!

Certainly,as you say,it's necessary for us make a plan work.We have a lot to do in our dailylife.If not,we would feel sweaty.Do you think?
We should make full use of time to handle all things.Of course,we have to do important things firstly.There is no such a lot time for us.So ,we have to do it.No matter how to say,we still get on well the things according to our own circumstances.Right?
Thank you,have a nice day!

We can take a little step at a time. We should not hurry on things. Like you I am also trying my luck on writing. I am learning new things everyday and I am trying to follow the suggestion of our friends here. Although there are really things that I do not understand but I know i will be able to learn this things in the days to come.
Thank you for sharing!
