Hey guys. We do plan before doing anything. Does your plan work always??? All my plans about going out with my friends will not work. Lol. If we plan that a few days back, then definitely it won't work. This has happened to us so many times. So we will just decide and go all of a sudden. Lol How about you???

Hi, I don't usually make many plans to go out or do anything like that. A lot of times I don't feel good and it's hard to know what days I feel like going out. Sometimes tho, I make plans with my kids to go out or go to their house but that's family so if I don't feel good, they will understand.

Both. LOL. I get pain in my back sometimes. And sometimes, I just don't feel like going anywhere. It depends on where we are going I guess.

hi vidhya.. i am a lazy fellow... i have planned many things in my life but i failed to execute it.. this made me to suffer a lot.. thats why i decided never plan anything and take up at that time and at that moment.. planing will definitely create some expectations and if that doesnt happen then we are the person who is gonna be affected.. this is my views.. happy mylotting

Ya Ya. I do agree with you. Expectation is the worst thing. Oh my God!! Faced a lot because of expecting little love and care from others. Now I don't expect anything from anyone. Lol. I don't like to plan as well. Hehe. Just taking life as it comes.

Sometimes I have to plan my work that has a definite demand. Otherwise I have to attend my work as it comes to me by the demand of tne situations! The old school saying goes like, "Plan your work and work your plan. Do one thing at a time and never waste time!" So whether we are able to follow the plan or not but we shall have to plan for our work definitely! Thanks for this nice discussion!

Nice saying. I do agree with you. Still I don't think that I will plan my things. Lol. If I plan anything I will expect about that. And if it doesn't happen I will feel so upset and will find it more difficult to come out of it. Lol. Hehe. Happy to have your response.

yes, it always works. guess what? because i never make a plan. so, everything happened is as per my plan . just kidding. i like improvisation. if i make a plan, there has to be a plan B supporting it, and a plan C supporting the plan B. well, in making a plan, i rarely make a detailed plan unless it's required; it's just a big picture always. i think the proper blend between plan and improvisation plays important role on how success our planned works and other activities.

Ya you are right. We also need to think about the alternatives. When I plan for something I will just get tired. Then how will I think of Plan B and Plan C?? Lol. Hehe. Thats the reason why I don't plan. Hehe.

I do not think that without planning we are successful. Every success in life has its own foundation. Some people attribute their success to some thing and other attribute their success to their parents or any other to whom they like more and they get aspiration to succeed. There is some other who say that my success is my planning.

I don't actually remember planning anything. Lol. As of now I have just completed my studies. So don't have much practical experiences. From my experience I never plan to study also. Lol. I will just keep on reading. Thats all. But I have seen many people planning. They will set a timetable for themselves. It never worked for me. Lol. Happy to have your response.

Hello Vidhyavini The important thing when planing for something is to follow that plan to the end and not get distracted doing something else. For example if I have to study for an exam I will plane my next day before I go to sleep and I try to go somewhere where are not temptations, like in classroom from my university, a public library, somewhere where is peace and serenity and I don't have any computers with internet connection, music, movies or any other temptation. If I want to go out with my friends we don't usually plan it, we go out when we fell like it. But if we have to plan it we have to decide on a location and an hour that everyone is have with and we try to stick with it. Sometimes someone will be a little late or because of some reason he/she can't make it. This thing rarely happens. Take care and have a great day ScarFace

I always plan before doing anything. My job now involves planting stuff and running a farm. My brother owns the farm and he tells me what he wants to grow on the farm. I am not a farmer so what I do is to learn all that I can about it theoretically and I then ask people for their experiences. And then, I make my plan. If the plan says I have inadequate knowledge or resources to succeed then I rethink the project. If the plans shows me a 60% chance of success then I will go for it especially if the returns are great.

Yes we make plans when we want to go outside. If we are going out in the same town we make plan same day but if we like to go outside the town we will make plan before day then we will go to enjoy the tour. Some time our plans are not work because of parents. They are not allowed us to go outside the town some times. Most of time our plans are successful

I try not to plan things ahead with friends. If we randomly want to hang out it works much much better I agree. For some reason a lot of people are flaky so if they make plans they break them without really remembering. I don't know if this is on purpose or if they really did have something prior to do and forgot. This has happened to me a lot lol Once on my birthday I was so sad lol.

Oops. We will easily get upset on our birthday. Happened to me also. I can never forget that. That birthday was the last day with my friends. Now we are not friends anymore.
