Have a Problem? Then Have a Plan
Have a Plan and do the little things.
As a therapist, and as a person, we all have frustrations, problems, and challenges we want to work through, that;s just life. Today’s blog post talks about how having them, and simpling having a plan, along with the little actions that make up that plan, take you toward working through it.
A plan is realistically, what you come up with to solve that problem or challenge. Let’s be honest, and realistic, most plans aren’t perfect, and perfectly executed (even in football as the first fifteen plays are scripted). Plans change, you fall of course, or plan, you get hit with a curve ball, it happens.
Ask yourself, what’s more important? That the plan’s changed? You feel frustrated, or that you come up and keep going with the plan you had in mind, by doing those little simple actions that move you forward.
A Plan is way to show Intent
Having a plan and executing shows the universe that you are serious about solving a problem, working through a challenge, and getting to a goal. You show the universe by doing the little things along the way. Execute your plan, even better, execute it in a way that is so realistic, but also easy and doable for you.
That’s progress, that creates growth, and that my friends are what I write about and work with my clients. Because if you can grow and work with me through one challenge of your life, then I’ve given you the skills to work through the other challenges that come up.

Now back to our regularly scheduled planning blog.
I remember when I was single and dating, my plan was all over me in Three Percent Man, it helped me so much, and I learned that if I can ride the wave of dating my true ten, I can totally ride the wave of being in that relationship with her.
If I can give myself feedback from that time in my life, it would be to have a plan, take action, but don’t get caught up in having to take perfect action. Why? Because nobody is perfect, the point is to practice the little things and do them, not have everything perfect.
Did I mess up in dating, hell yeah but when I had a plan, I did the little things, and was at my best, I worked through that part of my life with a plan and you can too. Whether you want to work through a problem a challenge, a relationship, your marriage, you can truly work through anything.
Good news if you are here
It means that you want to work through it, even know what you have to do, you just have some frustrations, and emotions that stop you. That’s where I come in as a coach.
As a therapist, I help you understand why you’re frustrated. As a coach I help you execute the plan to work through it, make progress, and get out of here, and enjoy life.
So now that you know what you want, give yourself a plan, and execute, each and every day, the little simple actions that you know will take you a long way, like this blog post. My plan to make more posts that are engaging, and also create content, had to be adjusted.
Don’t focus on perfection
I don’t focus on the perfect blog post, or the perfect website, I focus on the little things, this post started old school with pen to paper, now next it’s on keyboard to word document. Then it will be on word document to the website, then emailed out.
So come up with your plan, to work through that problem, that challenge, and I urge you to make those steps, the littlest and smallest steps possible. After all, you are going to be somewhere in six months, might as well look back and go, I wasn’t perfect, but I did a lot of things I needed to know. I made a lot of progress, and also picked up some great habits for future problems to work through.
