阅读下面短文,根据短文内容,按要求完成下列各题。
As the saying goes, "If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail." Many people may think of planning as a boring thing, but it's actually one of the most useful skills we should learn. Planning means creating a timeline and a road map for achieving the goals we have set for ourselves.
In fact, we all plan in one way or another and enjoy the benefits (好处) of it in our daily lives, even if we don't realize it. A great example of this is when we plan our holidays. Planning helps us remember what to do and where to go before we leave. By planning ahead, we can enjoy a much better holiday experience.
Planning is also widely used for managing a personal budget. By making a spending plan, we can regularly check our finances (财力) and stop ourselves from wasting money on unnecessary things. This helps us save money and achieve both big dreams (like foreign travels) and small wishes (like weekly snacks).
For some people, planning has become an important part of life. Whether it's for studying, working, or achieving personal dreams, a good plan helps us use time wisely and avoid mistakes. Besides, having a plan enables us to deal with variables (易变的事), which can reduce stress compared to not having a plan at all.
Now you see why planning is so important! To get started, you can write down your goals, break them into easier-to-achieve parts, and then start planning how to make them come true. Little by little, your plans will turn your big dreams into real-life achievements!
