Humble Plans, circa 1850s!

No amount of time spent upfront on Planning is good enough.

Waiting to perfect the plan or getting worked up for any change to the plan (drafted sometime back) only accumulates waste.

The reason being, having to change your plans is unavoidable in this complex and highly uncertain world we live in.

Moreover, having to change your plans isn’t necessarily a failure of planning, instead it might be helpful for making your plans succeed.

If you try to prevent all mistakes and see everything coming before even starting, you’re going to be so stuck in your plans and invariably making even more mistakes along the way.
