Every individual have objectives. These can be short term, mid term or long term goals. As we are in pursuit of our careers we have vast ideas and not all of these ideas will work out the way we want them to. Some of us want to own businesses and others wants to further their academic career in one way or the other. Either way in all of this there might be fallbacks. It is therefore important to have a back up plan for your plans in case the one you have does not work.
My opinionated advice is to be able to adjust and adapt, but most importantly be flexible so that if your plan does not work out then an alternative plan will be your fallback position (which might be conventional). If you play your cards right, you will not be in a situation where you accept anything that happens to you. Conventional fallback position means general standard, normal settings, where one fall into if the original set out one does not work. I for one have been in a situation where none of my plans materialized then I had to do things the conventional way. I had to accept life as it is, you how hard it is to sustain life and not making life. I mean one thing I like about life is that we are given freedom, the opportunity to decide what we wanna do out of it, what we wanna make out of it. Although it has responses to our attempt to make a living and some of those are not good at all.
It does not matter how you fall but if you pick yourself after you’ve fell is better because you realize your mistakes.
I am very fond of this say: “if you are going nowhere in particular, any road will take you there” by Lewis Carroll. Though in life we encounter unconventional things but for the sake of making something in life conventional will be a good fallback position. I think this applies to people who are not proactive. People who live life as it present itself to them.
