Planning is an action word. It has to do with, formulating of a course of action, or of drawing up plans. Planning is very necessary in every works of life. Now, there is a difference between planning and effective planning. I tend to use the adjective 'effective,' this is because a lot of business owners, I have come across who had failed businesses would always say that they planned and would look for one factor to blame the cause of the failure on but looking at it critically, other business men or women are still operating the same business successfully which means that one person did not do an effective planning. An effective planning is efficient and also readily available for useful work. Some potential business owners do not engage in effective planning, they just source for the funds or capital and think that all have been set and when a challenge arises, they start lashing out their frustrations.
Effective planning is in-depth and includes decisive results. Effective planners are those who foreshadow the possible challenges that might arise in the business in the future and they look for ways to being an instant solution in case of any circumstances. For example, in offices or any working environment, we have fire extinguishers. Now, those fire extinguishers are not placed or mounted because anyone is expecting a fire outbreak rather it is mounted for future purposes, just incase something of that nature occurs, people would not start running helter skelter to look for extinguishers to put off the light. As an entrepreneur, how much time do you dedicate to effective planning?
