I feel like the only person who doesn’t have „plans“.

People asking me what are my plans next week, next month, next summer.

Man, I don’t even have a plan for tomorrow.

People telling me their month is planned out like they’re doing an Antarctica expedition.

I have kids, a job, I go to the gym several days a week but you wanna meet the day after tomorrow? Sure we’ll make it happen. It seems like failing not having a tight schedule?

I’ve always been the same way. Planning makes me anxious to be honest. I’ll definitely set time aside for the things my kids, family or friends want to do together, but I operate optimally on the fly. I feel like it leaves room for randomness and spontaneity which at this point my kids have realized can lead to fun adventures. It’s adults that have a hard time with my style

I can relate to anxiousness when planning… maybe that’s something to work on?

Possibly. Although at this point in my life I’ve justified it pretty well and see people’s disappointment and frustrations when things don’t go according to plan. That said, I’m sure some balance between the two is best.
