All planning is subject to change

avatar

Hello community of Project Hope and Hive , I want to talk about two things that are necessary both in life and in business, based on my current work experience, and considering the factors that have made many people do not know what to do when situations arise that involve major social and economic changes, and insist on doing the same in the same way, absurd in the first instance, but the changes are not always easily assumed by the majority, or perhaps if?

These are two aspects that I want to mention, that seem to be in opposition to each other, however, we must make them able to live with each other.

  • The importance of planning and complying with it.
  • The need to be flexible when it is required.

Do the above statements contradict each other?

At first glance it seems so, but let me explain below, I hope to make myself understood, let's start...

The importance of planning and compliance

"Planning is bringing the future into the present so you can do something about it now ". Alan Lakein

The reality is that planning is very necessary, in everything we want to do, because it is there where we foresee all the nuances that could arise, how we are going to overcome them, we also determine the steps one by one that we must follow in order to achieve that which we seek.

We order on paper or on a PC the materials, tools, skills and personnel, all the resources we have and those we need to reach the goal, but, even though our planning may be "perfect ", there are always things that individually or as a team we will not be able to consider... what has happened this year is an example. For this reason, I consider the second point I will talk about next.

The second point I want to develop is the following:

The need to be flexible when needed.

"When it is obvious that the objectives cannot be achieved, do not adjust the objectives, adjust the action steps ". Confucius

Everything is not always going to turn out the way we want it to, just as we had planned. The possibilities of realities emerging that are out of our hands are always within the possibilities. And that is when we have to be very intelligent in order to make the necessary adjustments to comply with what we have planned or to change the strategies, and adapt to the different realities. Businesses that do not adapt to constant change end up disappearing. This is a reality that applies to the natural as well as to the commercial area.

How many businesses do you know that closed their doors definitively thanks to the pandemic?, to give a contextualized example...

The reality is that we have to plan, obviously, but never forget that everything in life will always be subject to change, otherwise, we could find ourselves swimming against the current in a race that we are not going to win.

For now I say goodbye, thank you very much for reading me.

Hello friend @josevas217

Planning things is always important because it helps us to project ourselves, and I think it also motivates us to be able to fulfill our goals and objectives, but as you say anything can happen along the way but the important thing is not to change the goals but the strategies. Learning from mistakes and tripping over many stones is normal but that doesn't discourage us from moving forward.

Hello my dear friend @josevas217.

Certainly when we elaborate a planning there must be a secondary plan that allows that the original planning can be adjusted to any change.

Excellent your publication, thanks for sharing
