The importance of The Ransom of Red Chief is that to plan out what you do before you take action. Bill and Sam wanted to kidnap Johnny Dorset then return him for a ransom. Instead, they had to pay 250 dollars to return him back to his father, and earned no money in return. Also, Johnny, nicknamed as Red Chief, surprisingly liked to camp out because the people in his town probably despised him. Bill and Sam wanted money to kidnap more children and getting more money, but that plan totally failed.
Learning from Bill’s and Sam’s mistake, planning and organizing before taking action is critical- one may make a big mistake when they are doing something and feel like as if they are dumb. For example, when you forget to do your homework because you were too busy playing video games, you feel busted and super dumb for not completing your homework. Additionally, organizing can also help an event or activity flow better and be prepared for whatever may come up. For instance, if you prepare food for a hiking trip, you are ready to provide someone with food if they are hungry.
Moreover, planning and organizing prevents disorder from interrupting an activity or event. When you only invite the peers that behave come to a tour of your home, they will not go crazy and destroy your belongings, unlike what misbehaving and disrespectful people will do. Also, turning off your phone rings and notifications during a talk with a close friend is respectful and planned for. For if you do not think of “disabling” the notifications, there would be text messages, phone calls, and breaking news “ringing” from your phone like a fire alarm.
