Essential of good planning

Yes you know: When you plan something you must be flexible because thing are changing and we must adjust our planning accordingly.

Is it just like that? I’m sure it’s not because I have one little trick that make me possible to stick with my plans, and avoid rationalizations why something can’t be done.

What is trick?

It’s very simple. I don’t make plans I make promises.
Why:

Because this work, in almost all articles how to change habit you will find that you must make your habit change public knowledge, with clear idea that we don’t like to make people disappointed because we don’t stick with the promise.

But be careful when people promise they tend to be conservative about what they promise. Make your promises challenging.

Personal standard for planing

Instead making to do list, or plan make promise to yourself.
Instead titles like “To do tomorrow” make titles like “I promise to do tomorrow”.
Instead titles like “plan for today” make titles like “I promise for today”.

Works miraculously. I promise.
