Do you need a Plan B? That is an interesting question isn’t it. Coming out of the COVID crisis a lot of people were caught off guard finding themselves in a predicament where they had to rapidly come up with their Plan B.
To Plan B or not to Plan B
Let’s examine the behind the scenes success stories of two people. Our first person is a musician. He moved to Nashville to pursue his dream of becoming a professional Country Music Artist. He gave himself two years to get into the music business. That is all he did, his goal is all he focused on. Some thought he was wasting his time yet others cheered him on. Ultimately he did indeed become a successful Country Artist in less than two years. When he was asked in an interview “What was his plan B?” He responded, “I didn’t have one.”
Our second person also a musician, incredibly could shoot some serious hoop. He was so good that by the time he was in college he was being scouted for the MBA. Unfortunately, a debleating injury put the kibosh on his dream of playing professional basketball. If you’re thinking now he has a Plan B you are correct. Turns out this multi-talented young man was also a concert pianist and went on to become a very successful Christian Music Artist.
Thoughts to Consider About Plan B
Obviously as you can determine from the stories of both men having a Plan B is situational. At the same time, what you do if your Plan A fails is entirely dependent on you and your God given abilities. Personally I am a person that has their hands in a lot of things but I respect and expect everyone is not wired like me. Here are some pointers for figuring out this whole Plan B thing:
-
- What is the thing that you dream about doing? The thing you were born to do? Is it only one thing or is it multiple things. How can you prioritize what is Plan A and then Plan B?
- If you find you only have one thing that you gravitate to then do that one thing with conviction, determinization, and drive, your plan B may be there will never be a Plan B.
- Are you in a position that if your Plan A does not go as planned you can let it go and what will you do next?
In Conclusion
Because people are wired different and God gives people talents as He see’s fit, the main point I really hope to get across is this. What ever you do, do it to the best of your ability and do not let yourself be crippled by the fear of failure or the disapproval of the naysayers.
