Some people just like to wing it.

They like to act spontaneously, speak extemporaneously, and follow their hunches.

I like to do that, too. It can be a pretty cool, fun, and exciting thing to do!

Unless efficiency matters.

Unless there is a lot of risk in doing so.

Unless your time and money are limited.

While I’m a huge fan of being flexible and taking advantage of opportunities that come our way, once the vision is set (or reset), it’s time for a plan.

First, pick your destination.

Then, determine your starting point.

Next, plan the route from where you are to where you want to be.

Then, determine what resources you need and go get them.

Finally, head out!

And if you decide to change your destination, start the process all over again.

When you follow this simple 5-step process, you will conserve resources and get there quicker and with far less stress.

You won’t lose as many teammates or mess up as much along the way.

You’ll save time and money.

And you won’t make the mistake of starting to walk across America with nothing but a sandwich.

Keep being Awesome!

– Paul
