"Even a bad plan is better than no plan at all." - Mikhael Tal

I have seen the difference just having a plan in mind makes, compared to looking at every turn by itself. Not that you always stick to the plan 100%, or even scrap it altogether based on circumstances. But having some idea of how you're going to do what you need to do does wonders. I still play games where I'm too lazy to spend the time coming up with a plan & that's usually where things go seriously awry. you can still get your a@@ kicked , but as least you will have set yourself up for success if you take the time to plan what you want to do.
