You Can Plan For 1,000 Years But Tomorrow You May Have to Change Your Entire Plan!

Many of the top civilizations of the past have tried to plan for 1000 years in advance. Of course, we all know that most of these plans did not succeed and some crumbled those societies and civilizations in a very adverse way. You see, you can plan for 1000-years ahead, but you may have to change those plans tomorrow. Let me explain.

You see planning has an "ing" on the end of the word, and there is a very good reason for it. It is because "planning is a process" that is never-ending and something that is constantly changing. It is best to plan ahead five-years at a time and have in mind some ultimate goals, even if those goals sound fairly elusive or nothing more than a dream for instance; the perfect utopia.

It doesn't matter if you are planning an entire civilization, or planning a new business; in the end it is still the same process. An entrepreneur would not take his business-plan, complete it, and throw it in a drawer somewhere never to look at it again. The proper way to do it, is to be constantly modifying it, have multiple versions, changes, offshoots, and take advantage of each opportunity as it comes forth.

The reality is that you can indeed plan-for-1,000-years, and that is all well and good, just realize the reality that things could change tomorrow thus, changing all your hard work and sending you back to the drawing board. Please consider this as you draw up plans for the future, whether such plans are short term strategies or indeed, the longer 1,000 year type future dreams of utopia. Please consider all this.
