    It's nice to have things planned out...
    ...but it's usually a good idea to have a back up plan just in case...
    How many plans to do you go into a situation armed with?

    Usually just one: my way. If that doesn't work I either improvise, go with the flow, or walk away.
    I always liked the saying: "Lead, follow, or get out of my way."

    well dan you know the saying We plan and God laughs? Despite that, I still think I am in charge, in control, very organized.....and then when I think of that phrase I hear faint laughter.....but it is me laughing at my own plans.

    LoL

    I try to have a "plan" for things...
    but more often than not things end up going to way of 'Plan B' which in actuality is 'What ever the better half says is the plan of action'...LoL

    I go in with a thought out plan A, and a backup plan with the angles thought out as well.

    Prepare, prepare, prepare!

    I have been known to overthiink thiings...so yes I usually have a back up plan. As a side note, it doesn't matter how many backup plans I have when it comes to my kids as they always throw me a curve ball which renders plans A-Z out the window

    Hey Mr. Danger, welcome to Tuesday. Natalka did a good job for Monday.
    Well, being Tuesday and having Oshawa rain, then freezing rain, then snow, we had some plan Bs and plan Cs to get to work.
    Plan A. Monday evening, check weather report and prepare for Tuesday.
    Plan B. Monday evening, pack lunch. Pack breakfast, just in case.
    Plan A . Tuesday morning, again with the weather report, and left early. Really early.
    Plan B & C If roads on way to work were wicked bad, call boss and ask if a vacation day was o.k. or if coming in late and making up time was o.k.

    Plan A worked. Only 15 minutes late.
    Plan A+ Will cut lunch short and leave on time.

    Sometimes I have a concrete plan, but most of the time I have a 'framework' and improvise on the details.
