How far ahead do you plan?

One of the ways we hit our goals is by making plans.

Even if things change, just mapping out the target and the timeline makes it easier to move toward it.

But here’s the thing: long-term plans often don’t work out. Personally, I’ve found that 5-year plans feel almost impossible. By the time you get there, everything’s changed.

So I’m curious: what’s your approach to planning and sticking to it?

Here’s what works for me:

1/ Keep plans within a reachable horizon. I usually set goals for the next 2–3 months.

2/ Review weekly. It keeps things fresh and lets me adjust fast if something changes.

3/ Break it down into detail. I try to describe every step, knowing I won’t hit 100%, but even hitting most of them gets me close to the goal.

What about you? How far ahead do you plan  and how do you make sure those plans actually happen?👇
