Plan B
Life doesn’t always work out the way you expect. Despite all of your best intentions, efforts, planning, double-checking — well, something unexpected just might happen.
Time for Plan B.
Actually, we’re estimating that, in our efforts to develop our adaptive rowing program, we’re on about Plan X or Y by now. Guess why it’s called “adaptive” — because we’re learning to adapt.
Equipment deliveries late? No problem — we have Plan E.
Missing parts? Easy — Plan H time.
Erg transport? No-brainer — pull out Plan J.
Seat issues? Ha! Plan M will fix that problem.
Funding shortfalls? Check out Plan Q.
The ability to come up with a Plan B (better known as resilience) really is key to successful program development — and, to a successful life. If we ever forget this lesson, we can just turn to our adaptive athletes — doubtful that any of them had planned a life with a disability, but they sure have created some awesome Plan Bs.
