Planning Ahead

In Touch

A Monthly Curated Newsletter

We live in three distinct timeframes - the Past, the Present, and the Future. Many times, we tend to live and make decisions based on what gives us immediate gratification, and often to our detriment. Despite not knowing what tomorrow will bring, planning ahead removes uncertainty and provides clarity to our lives. In this issue, I have included articles that I hope will inspire you to take actions that your future self will thank you for.

Planning Ahead Is the Key to Living With More Spontaneity

Scheduling spontaneity doesn't lessen the joy of spontaneity; it enables it. You still have the freedom to do whatever strikes you in the moment - even more so because you know that's exactly what you intended to do.

Why plan ahead?

Planning ahead is sometimes called advance care planning. It involves thinking and talking about your wishes for how you're cared for in the final months of your life and when you're dying. This is in case there's a time in the future when you're unable to take part in the discussions and decision-making yourself.

What are the chances?

We can't predict the future, but we can plan for it. But why does this even matter? Meet some ordinary people thinking about these things.

Joan is someone who is passionate and energetic, and cares deeply about the progress of clients and users like us. She is also bubbly and approachable, and is good at what she does. In spite of our busy schedules, she was very patient and on-the-ball with her follow-ups and took time to catch up with us on-site, which we appreciate. Her training is clear, and we found the HQ platform to be user-friendly and easy to understand. Thank you Joan and HQ! Highly recommended.
