Today you are taking a big step in your life : you want to build a house. You have enough money in your bank account and you are really tired of living in that tiny apartment. So, it’s time to move ! What is your first step ? You definitely need some tools, help from professionals and… of course, a plan !

This last piece is really important and it might sounds obvious that nobody should start their project without a plan, some do. I’m pretty sure by now that you understand that I will not really explain how to build a house in this blog. However, it may help you to. I want to start this blog with a strong example to show how planning and strategy are important to any project, no matter how big (or small) they are. This is the first step. Don’t buy or use any tool before having one. Some might say that, in fact, it is really hard to know what kind of tools you need if you have no idea what you are building.  Finally, don’t spend all your money on tools. You need to learn how to use them and make sure that they contribute to your plan and strategy. What are your tools and how do they contribute to your project ?
