We’ve all been there. We all have conjured up the perfect plan at one point or the other . Sometimes it is life defining things like plans about your career, marriage, family ties etc and sometimes it is mundane things like how you’d prepare the perfect next meal or how you’d learn to drive a car by the end of the year.
Yet, most of those things are just that, plans. No matter how perfect they are, they still need proper execution in order to be successful. That being said, it is also important to realize that the business plans or major personal plans that you make may look good on paper, but they won’t necessarily be practical in real life.
I see a lot of students gloating over how their business idea “won” over the evaluation panel and how they could be the next big thing in the business world, but without any practical experience to show for it, they’re bound to fail. For example, they say they’ll source 4 bus drivers to run their new travel business, but what would they do if one of the drivers continuously keeps showing up drunk and the passengers suffer as a result. Sure they can fire him and hire a new one, but how would they cope with the loss of patronage?
However, not all hope is lost. After all, practice makes a man perfect. Throughout life, one is bound to face numerous challenges both in their personal and professional life and definitely a lot of “perfect plans” would be thrown off course. The key here is to never lose hope.
The execution of any plan should be on point, with a no nonsense attitude. One should always try hard and make the best use of whatever life throws at them. I know this sounds very philosophical and cliche but hey, what can you do? At best, you can try, most of the times, things will fall into place and you will have the perfect execution of your perfect plan.
Man writing seems to be getting harder with each passing day. Perhaps I should start writing a few more personal anecdotes to get that groove back. As for this post, I feel that the plan was on spot, but the execution was a big swing and a miss. Do you think the same? Tell me in the comments section below.
Also tell me about what you think of the topic. Has it ever happened that you had the perfect plan, but you failed because of terrible execution? It can be related to anything, school, work, personal life. Tell me, I’d be interested in knowing.
Also. follow me on Twitter and for any communication you can contact me.

Great plan and shitty execution? Oh boy where do I even begin.
So in my life, the plans I make are for exams. So for my sst board, I month earlier, I made a plan, the most perfect plan there exists on planet Earth, and I was very pleased. It has all my syllabus covered (22 chapters + 109 maps + 17 diagrams). And, I could revise twice AND have time to study other things AND have sufficient buffer time for hard chapters (all of geography) AND have 3 hours free everyday. A month later, I was up till 3 am trying to finish maps. I still don’t understand what went wrong.

It may have been said the best laid plans disappear and sometimes that which appears is better. We plan, we plan, we plan and God redesigns our plans.

Plans and ideas are cheap. What’s expensive is the tenacity to see the simplest idea through to fruition. That has always separated success from failure.

I think we all have. Sometimes it is good to follow through. Plan sometimes curtails creativity and things always do not go by Plan. Nice read

I guess every now and then. I prepared like the most for my major. But ended up scoring least in it because of my shitty execution on the exam day. I did too much and sometimes that is not a good thing. I experienced that at least.

Thanks for your publication. One other thing is individual American states have their own laws of which affect householders, which makes it very hard for the the legislature to come up with a whole new set of rules concerning foreclosures on homeowners. The problem is that a state provides own laws which may work in an adverse manner in relation to foreclosure insurance policies.
