Do you make a lot of plans? And how is your routine schedule looking?

I hate making plans. By Thursday at work everyone is already making plans for the weekend.

I could say that I was put off plans by working in a corporate environment for many years and a strict diary. I tend to think “what if I really do not feel like a flaming picnic on Sunday morning?” When Sunday morning arrives. Or what if eating lunch with Jane and Janet is the last thing I feel like doing when the time arrives. (Poking my eyeballs out might be a better bet when feeling that way).

Heaven forbid you ask me to make a date with you in two weeks time. I just stare at the person in stunned silence.

What is the good side of plans? I know the down side is I hardly go anywhere for example. But is there a bigger plan within plan making? Meaning if you can plan and arrive at a picnic then surely you can plan to make that life long trip a reality, that career move available, meet the man of your dreams one can hope So by minimizing the small plans are we sabotaging our lives. Plus how do plans effect routine? are you a routine person and why? Would love to take a peek into peoples plan making and routine strategies. I find it inspiring!
