Yep, things never go as planned - I agree.

What if one plans for plans not going as planned?

Then one will have a miserable life - at least I would!

I am happiest when I have significant goals that I am working towards.
I've always had something, whether it be working towards my engineering
degree a few years ago, or a certain job, etc. Currently it's a career
in aviation. So far the way I've gone about obtaining those goals did
not go exactly as planned (which is usually not a bad thing
surprisingly enough). For the most part been able to accompolish all
of my goals, even if the journey taken was not at planned.

There was a point a few years ago after I graduated college and began
working. It was kind of like what now? I'd accompolished my major
goals and didn't really have anything major I was working towards. I
was pretty unhappy until I figured out why.
