Plans and A Four-Point Formula to Achieve Success.

Why should you be ready to change your plans? You set goals and make a few actionable plans to achieve them. But when you undertake the journey, you may face unexpected hurdles, however superior your plans may be. Remember that there can never be bullet-proof plans. That is why you have to make the required changes when you face hurdles. Of course, it may not be necessary to make complete changes to your plans. But you may have to make certain tweaks so that you get rid of the hurdles you are facing. Of course, it may be necessary to change your plans when there is a misalignment between your goals and your plans. Never keep dwelling on your old plans once you have revised them.


An expert was asked, "How to find a solution to a problem?" He replied, "A problem will continue to remain so unless you realize that the problem itself will be the solution." What does he mean by that? The precise meaning is that a problem provides you with an opportunity to fine-tune or tweak your plans so that you can smooth out your journey.

1. The process of setting goals is a white-knuckler. It is an oxymoron-like situation in which you experience both excitement and nervousness all at once. You may be enthusiasm-personified also. Your nervousness is real and understandable because there is no guarantee that your journey will be smooth. Roadblocks are likely to be there, and they may decelerate the speed at which you move. If you do not take timely action to make the tweaks in your plans, it may result in either failures or delays in achieving your goals. Procrastination is the hobgoblin that can kill your ambitions like a predator. Further, the hurdles may burgeon into uncontrollable and unmanageable giant-sized devils

2. Never get scared. The reason is that fear is an emotion that may spoil your perspective. Emotions such as fear, anger, hatred, and jealousy are negative regulators of your dopamine. You may not make the right decisions when you allow such emotions to control you. Remember that every problem under the Sun has a solution. You have to apply your mind while choosing from various available alternatives. Regardless of the field in which you are working or operating, you may have to face competition. If you are scared and make wrong decisions, you may put yourself on a slippery slope. This means that your fall is imminent. So, staying calm and choosing the right option is very much necessary.

3. Never hesitate to seek experts' advice. If the decision-making process seems to be foggy, you must immediately get hold of an expert in the field and seek his or her advice. You may wonder if this advice is necessary at all. But there are people who humblebrag that they never seek others' help. There is nothing wrong with seeking help. Again, if you delay taking this step, your competitors may outsmart you.

4. Never underestimate the moves of your competitors. Some of their moves may seem dumb. But they may pose a huge problem in the long run. So, you must be alert. You must learn to analyze things prudently and without bias as well. This means you should keep abreast of all the latest tools and technologies that are available. Technologies are constantly evolving, and so, it is insanity if you lag. History is replete with instances of people and entities that have been ruined due to their obsolete notions and their stubbornness in opposing new ideas.

If you keep these aspects in mind and are alert, you can easily change your plans according to the prevailing situations. Only then will it be easy for you to have a smooth journey towards achieving your goals.
