Unplanned Plans…
This is yet another post where I will not reveal what I am talking about. You are most welcome to skip reading this post.
Most plans of mine don’t seem to happen as planned. Last minute confusions, tensions have always been there, threatening to make the entire plan go topsy-turvy and most of the times succeeding in doing so too. I have now got used to it so much that when it happened yet again, I was not disappointed at all. The key to that was, of course, not having had an expectation of things happening as per plans at all, in the first place. Anyway, it finally seems like end of confusions now! 
I only hope that at least the rest of the ‘unplanned plan’ goes smoothly as planned.
P.S.: How many times have I used the word ‘plan’ in this post?!
P.S.1: Couldn’t help remembering the quote, ‘Life is what happens when you are busy making plans!’

hehe plans plans
There is never enough time to do everything, but there is always enough time to do the most important thing and that is to plan 
:P

isnt a lot of life about setting/managing expectations?i suck atplanning - esp the personal life part when one doesnt have a mid/year-end review -truly pathetic state of affairs

This post shows you are in a different plan(e) of thought!
It is good that you plan to be unplanned. It reminds me of the quote “by failing to plan you are planning to fail”.

Kaushik,
Thanks! All those plans succeeded
Madhusudhanan,
A busiest person is supposed to be one who has time for everything. So there should be enough time for everything 
Puranjoy,
Yup
Sriram,
Do set expectations but don’t expect it to be fulfilled always
Sathyamurthy,
I think one will fail only when there is no back-up plan for a failed plan

When planned things happening in unplanned way or unplanned things happening in a planned way, there is a plan inside in it. In the former case we know the plan, in the second case we dont know the plan. But plan is the plan when we know it else it is not our plan but somebody’s plan, but the plan is a plan
If unplanned plan is seen as as a plan, then it is optimistic view. So to be optimistic always we can see either it as known plan or unknown plan
