Your Plan is in High Demand
To "Plan" is a significant resource that carries an eternal existence in the daily foundation of life. No matter the day of the week, each one requires a plan of action which ultimately can determine positive versus negative outcomes. Whether we realize this or not, our "output" actions have come to outweigh our "input" actions with regard to the plan. To further elaborate, more and more people today are in a rush to complete a task(s) so they tend to opt for a verbal over written perspective. Such plans are expected to be received and executed without setbacks which is much more than often not the case (input). On the other end (output), such plans typically result in more work being done than what was necessary to mitigate failure. My belief is that we've lost the 50/50 input-to-output plan and have fallen more in favor of the 70/30 output-to-input plan because of our "just get it done period" mentality. At the end of the day, and whether we see it or not, we must level up and understand that the value of the "50/50 plan" will always be in high demand, so stay tuned weekly and be sure to subscribe today!

Parent-Teach Perspective
This episode takes us into the family home and opens the door to parents taking the opportunity to teach children from the ages of 10-17 years old how to write an actual plan. This is what I have nicknamed, "Parent-Teach." In this case, it is a perspective in which the child will be fully briefed by the parent on a particular upcoming family event and be required to implement a plan via a checklist exercise. The exercise will have a completion deadline and will also be reviewed and graded by the parent. Upon grade completion, the parent will conduct a one-on-one brief with the child to let him or her know the outcome of the exercise.
