Planning Ahead

BusinessAdvicePro: Long range plans, not yours, not anyone else’s, should be taken seriously. Long range plans NEED to have the flexibility to change or you should be ready to wipe them out completely. I personally feel long range plans are extremely difficult to make, too exact plans anyhow. Thus – if anyone asks me about plans, my most regular answer during the past 5 or 10 years has been – you mean something in the longer term than 3 hours? No idea. I can’t put myself to do such plans. Of course I know that I’m interested in learning about business and marketing. I’m doing that, most likely 3 more hours. But after that? Well, probably, probably or most likely also tomorrow and next week. Most likely. But it’s far from a plan, it’s an idea, a possibility. This is of course an extreme example but you get the point.
