When You Have It All Planned Out & It Still Goes Wrong

How Prepared Can You Be?

I had spent the weekend preparing for the 4,500 Steem Power Live Drawing that took place recently. Not only that but prior to actually going live I prepared hours in advance just to make sure I had everything lined up. Well... something still went wrong after all that preparation. Honestly I was super mad about how things kinda blew up in my face at first, but then I realized the nature of this world. Nothing is perfect. So I got over it to deliver this message to you.

Listen. I am a huge proponent of preparing and putting yourself in position to take advantage of opportunities that are presented. But the truth of the matter is that things will not always go how you planned. We all have experienced this before. What I would say to you in regards to this is to keep preparing in spite of things breaking down and don't neglect putting yourself in great position to benefit from opportunities that come your way. You can prepare, prepare, prepare and those plans can fail, fail, fail. It sucks, I know. But we can even learn from those moments when our "perfect" plans don't work out. Much love.

What are some benefits of planning things?
