Change the Plan, Never the Goal or the Dream

October 25, 20233 min read

“If Plan A doesn't work, there are 25 more letters in the alphabet to go. Change the plan; don't ever change the goal or the dream.” - Elizabeth Meigs

Have you ever felt discouraged when your Plan A doesn't work out? It's natural to feel disappointed when things don't go as planned, but here's a thought to keep in mind: there are 25 more letters in the alphabet to go. This means that there are endless possibilities and alternatives to explore. So, instead of giving up, why not change the plan and keep fighting for your goals and dreams? In this blog post, we'll explore the power of resilience and the importance of staying committed to your dreams & aspirations, no matter the obstacles you face.

Change the Plan not ever the goal or the dream.

Life is full of unexpected twists and turns. Sometimes, the path we set out on doesn't lead us to where we want to be. But that doesn't mean we should abandon our dreams altogether. Remember, your goals and dreams are within you for a reason. They are part of your purpose your calling in life. So, even if Plan A fails, don't lose hope. You have everything within you that it takes to make it happen.

Resilience is the key to overcoming setbacks and challenges. It's the ability to adapt and bounce back when things don't go as planned. Just like the alphabet has 26 letters, you have numerous options and opportunities at your disposal. Embrace the mindset of flexibility and open yourself up to new paths and possibilities. Change the plan, but never change the goal or the dream.

It's important to acknowledge that the journey towards success is rarely a straight line. There will be obstacles, failures, and moments of doubt along the way. But these are all part of the growth process. Each setback is an opportunity to learn and grow stronger. Remember, every successful person has faced failure at some point. The key is to keep going, even when it feels impossible.

When you face challenges, remind yourself of your purpose and why you started in the first place. Visualize your end goal and stay focused on it. This will help you stay motivated and determined, even in the face of adversity. Surround yourself with supportive people who believe in you and your dreams. Seek inspiration from health and wellness experts, friends, and family. Their encouragement and guidance can make a world of difference.  This has always been key for me when facing my obstacles, knowing that I had the support of people around me who have always believed in me.

If Plan A doesn't work, remember that there are 25 more letters in the alphabet to go. Changing the plan doesn't mean giving up on your dreams. Instead, it's a sign of resilience and adaptability. Stay committed to your goals and aspirations, knowing that you have everything within you to make them happen. Embrace the challenges along the way as opportunities for personal growth. Never lose sight of your purpose, and surround yourself with a supportive network. Remember, everyone loses when they give up. So, keep going, keep exploring, and keep pursuing your dreams. Success is within reach, no matter how many letters it takes to get there.  I believe in you, and I know you have what it takes to get to where you want to be.  Don’t ever forget that!
