Real-World planning

Every project starts with some kind of planning. It can be very simple or it can become complex as hell.

But there will be a plan – no plan, no project.

There’s no reputable consulting firm that won’t present you with a macro plan before you buy a project, and it’s great they do it.

Now… keep this in mind:

Perfect approach: Know the client, know the situation, create a plan, execute it.

Real-world approach: Know a little about the client, know even less about the situation, create a crappy plan, execute it, update to a less crappier plan, execute it, and so on. This is how it works!
