The second Question that I have asked previously was “How many times in our life have we always done what we first wanted? (What we first wanted is always Plan ‘A’)” If this question does not make any sense to you read the following articles before continuing on this one.
Answering to my second question on backup plans, I have followed Plan ‘A’ a very few times and that is when:
Again, when I couldn’t keep Plan ‘A’, I kept moving thru the secondary plans and at times fell over to Plan ‘END’, and that is when I:
Somewhere between these two plans lie all other plans like ‘B’, ‘C’, ‘D’ and so on which gives me the satisfaction that I can be just a normal being. (neither a Saint(Plan ‘A’) nor a Sinner (Plan ‘END’))
This satisfaction that I received by using “Backup Plans” created a belief in me that skipping Plan ‘A’ can be at times good.
This is the end of line for my thoughts that arose when I started to write this article. I had a few questions when I started and now I have the answers for them. Look forward to my Q & A section tomorrow and thanks for reading this.
The Question that I have asked previously was “Does the Backup Plan we make bring us success?” Don’t remember what it was, follow this link to know more. (http://danishthomas.blogspot.com/2010/01/backup-plan-part-1.html)
Answer: Yeah, backup plan did help me in countless other situations. If it hadn’t helped me, if I wouldn’t have tasted success/ victory, I wouldn’t have followed it in the first place.
Just like a coin has two sides, so does everything. Everything has it’s own +ve’s and –ve’s. Let me explain. As discussed earlier, Plan ‘A’ is the main plan. Plan ‘A’ is also:
From Plan ‘B’ onwards, the Qualities mentioned above loses it worth/ value and finally in Plan ‘END’ none of the above mentioned qualities exist. Plan ‘END’ is a plan which rewards “Just Me.”
Now, that we understand the second side of the coin (Plan ‘END’), we should be able to tell that Plan ‘A’ should be the Best. However, before thinking any further on that point, let me put this question:
Q: How many times in our life have we always done what we first wanted? (What we first wanted is always Plan ‘A’)

To get sense on “Backup Plan – Part I”, you must have gone thru my article on “My Comeback”. If you had missed it, read it first from http://tinyurl.com/yfkmhxf and then proceed to this article. Before answering to my question, (Should I have a Backup Plan for writing the article on Backup Plan?) let me tell you about myself.
I had been and am being the man who has a plan. Yup, that’s right. I’m the
Man with a Plan
This careful planning habit of mine has reached its heights in such a way that it so happened that everything in my life happened the exact way I had planned it to happen. Let me explain:
I have Plan ‘A’, if Plan ‘A’ fails, I’ll switch over to Plan ‘B’. If ‘B’ fails then ‘C’, ‘D’ and so on till it goes to Plan ‘END’. Plan ‘END’ is the plan which happens in the life of every ordinary individual. (i.e., The Plan of the Last Resort)
This way, whatever happened in my life was according to my plan.
I have heard that “A man who always plans his every step, never fails”. I’m not sure as to whether I have succeeded in my life. (I really don’t know how to measure success) I spend some time thinking on this and got this question in mind. This is something for which I require an answer from you. So, go ahead, put on your thinking caps and give me some answers for this question.
