No matter how well we plan and try to control the outcomes, things will change and happen that we haven't anticipated and we have to adjust. Being able to adjust is probably even more critical than being able to plan.
Being really structured and rigorous in our expectations is bad news if it prevents us from reacting when things happen or change. Don't over-do your planning or over-set your expectations but do have and set expectations.
When your expectations aren't met rapidly go back to planning and adjusting mode and figure out how to respond to the situation at hand. Blink. Add this to your mental model for next time and continuously improve always and forever.
