Planning takes time and that is why we wing it most of the time. When you make haste, you make waste; it is a simple statement, but it is so true. When you plan things, the outcome is going to be exactly what you planned it to be. You can add extra time, a plan b and c if necessary.
Planning can be as simple as going to work. Instead of getting up at 7am and having to be at work at 8am, you might only live a few minutes away but throughout the day things can happen that could have been avoided If you had just planned the day better. Like having to go out and buy lunch when you just spent $200.00 on groceries.
