If planning offers so many tangible benefits, why do many professionals resist it? Some are more comfortable with acting, rather than "idle thinking," and therefore don’t want to devote so much time to it, or they think their circumstances are so likely to change that planning is futile. Other people complain that things are going so well(or so badly)that there’s no point in planning. Finally, some people don’ t make strategic plans because they can’t recognize the difference between strategic and short-term, operational planning—how to get where you’ve already decided to go.
Circumstances do change, and it’s certainly legitimate to wonder about the value of planning when things are changing so rapidly. But the plans we are talking about are not set in concrete. They are adaptable frameworks, goals, that can conform to changing circumstances. There’s nothing wrong with changing direction, if we know what we’re doing and understand our own reasoning. A plan gives us a foundation from which we can make appropriate digressions as needed.
Why plan if things are going fine? Won’t they continue like this? Won’t the skills we now use always be in demand? Probably not—especially in science and technology. Being prepared for new situations is a cardinal reason for having a strategic plan in the first place. Even if we cannot anticipate everything that will affect our path, we have a better chance of dealing with it effectively if we’ve thought ahead.
Things are going terribly, and I can’t bother planning because survival is the name of the game right now. Good reasoning. If it seems that
it’s going to be a close call just to reach that contracted goal
, don ’ t worry about initiating a new overall strategy. But most of us often think things are worse than they truly are. If you are continually moving from one crisis to another, you may need to take some time off to understand why. Are you really heading where you want to go? Is your personal style suited to your circumstances? What changes in direction could prevent some of these crises in the first place?
So, spend some time thinking about your future, outline your plans, and discuss them with people close to you. Strategic planning takes work, but it pays off. It’s an exciting way to create the future rather than just coast into it.
The author argues that planning ______.
选项
A、is flexible and may change with changing situation
B、may lose its value when the circumstances change
C、guides us through each stage of life to our destiny
D、adapts us to the changing environment at all times
答案
