Share a lesson you wish you had learned earlier in life.
No plan, no matter how awesome or well-plotted, never survives contact with the situation.
The plan WILL CHANGE.
Improvisation skills are just as important as being prepared.
It doesn’t matter the situation–home, work, finding a job, raising a kid, changing a tire, a relative dies, someone goes to the hospital, grocery shopping, cooking . . .
Name it.
You can lay the most detailed, well-provisioned plan with every contingency you can think of plotted out, and something WILL come out of left field to knock you on your ass.
Having a plan is nice, but it isn’t a shield against hard reality.
Learn to improvise, and make the best decisions you can at the time.
