I don't really have any plan A to have a plan B at all. -
You shouldn't have an A plan as strict as to need a B plan.
Your A plan should have variables, not hardcoded values. -
Hazarth95354ySame as the others.
I don't have longterm plans that I need to execute, I just have goals.
I know where I want to end up and the things I do are always aimed to achieve that goal.
Any failure is temporary -

"Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?" "That depends a good deal on where you want to get to," said the Cat. "I don't much care where--" said Alice. "Then it doesn't matter which way you go," said the Cat. "-so long as I get SOMEWHERE," Alice added as an explanation. "Oh, you're sure to do that," said the Cat, "if you only walk long enough."

Don’t remember who said this. “whenever you really want something, you shouldn’t have a plan B. You shouldn’t have a safety net in case things go wrong. If you have a safety net you won’t give all you can.”
Or something like that.
I never had a plan B. Just faith and trust in my abilities.
Worked just fine for the last 12 years or so 😅 -
@AtuM you took this a bit more serious than I expected.
It's good to have goals.
But - and that's a huge but - when you have a negative experience, take your time and learn from it.
My comment wasn't focused on goals.
My comment was focused on plans.
A goal is for me to e.g. lose weight, become an expert in a technology or sth. like that.
A plan is a concrete visualization of how to reach the goal.
You don't need a plan to have a goal.
What I dislike is the "plan" - I have goals, yes.
Most people have a very terrifying point of view where they plan their whole life instead of enjoying it.
I'm not saying "procrastinate and postpone everything"… rather - be realistic. Set a goal but don't put yourself under pressure by trying to reach it at all costs following a fixed plan.

iiii90854y@AtuM as one in a state of apathy and absence of strong desires, I don't really understand much about goals and plans.

My plan B if I hate industry eventually is teach high school computer science. Doesn't pay as much but honestly it doesnt sound too bad.
