But - you're right...better overprepared than underprepared! <BR/><BR/>Other side of the coin...when I'm used to planning, having no plan is really super freeing, sometimes!

I do find that when I'm not on a "plan", I do find myself missing workouts more. I have to one for guidance during training, but I don't stick to it like glue. It's a guideline. You enjoy this time off, so to speak. :-)Mendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00968363500551483010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5417535823506217209.post-25411077877400928422008-05-18T16:05:00.000-07:002008-05-18T16:05:00.000-07:00I think your "No plan" sounds like a great plan......I think your "No plan" sounds like a great plan... keep it up! :)teacherwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15791382386588836461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5417535823506217209.post-84824426420850294032008-05-18T13:54:00.000-07:002008-05-18T13:54:00.000-07:00I agree, the minute I plan my day, the minute I st...I agree, the minute I plan my day, the minute I stop enjoying it.

Pete is the complete opposite, and he's really taught me the benefit of not planning sometimes. Like not planning what to wear today, as we still don't have luggage and I'm wearing my mother in laws underwear. This is a good example of where if I had spent all this energy planning the exact outfit today, I would have been seriously distressed when it all went to shit.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12013504768642605916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5417535823506217209.post-16673395996697230792008-05-16T21:22:00.000-07:002008-05-16T21:22:00.000-07:00I am probably an OCD planner.
