Are You More The "Planner Type" Or "Spur Of The Moment Type" Of Person?

I learned the relevance of the old military adage about the best laid plans for combat engagement never surviving more than 10 seconds on the battlefield, before going straight down the 🚽🧻 in F. U. B. A. R. situational outcome wakeup call (⏰📞💂⚰️) reality. Fortunately for me and the guys watching my back, I was pretty good at using math and geometry to anticipate where the 💩 storm would be coming from, and what possible access points they would have to utilize, and how, to potentially ruin our day with, and our CO usually concurred with my deductions, using his West🤺Pointe♟️education, to narrow down those probabilities into a very likely ENEMY attack scenario to defend against.

I guess I'm a bit of both.

I'm kind of spontaneous. But I also like to know ahead of time if I'm supposed to do something like go out to dinner with friends on Saturday night, for example, so that I can be prepared.
When it comes to travel vacations, I like to do lots of research and plan itineraries and sights to see, while leaving lots of slack to do spur of the moment things while we are there.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Sounds good👍

[AmandaYVR]

I'm generally a planner. I'm organized and I like efficiency and I seek value in most things I do.

But I also can't stand rigidity, always predictability, routine that turns into the mundane, and so I need some spontaneity too. I like fun things that weren't planned, that you just do in the moment because it feels right. That can be liberating, and you don't agonize over the pre-planning to the point of snuffing out the fun.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

That's a good plan🙂🤣

[jennifer_bloom]

I always plan things but I’m willing to make small spontaneous choices such as lengthening or shortening a friendship date but I avoid big changes cause I always budget my cash for events the month before I do it which is why I have not borrowed money in over ten years - I do not take risks.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

That's good

[ecfresh]

I’m a planner. But have learned to be spontaneous over time. So when going on vacation I’ll chart the trip, reserve the hotels, and find something to do for one of the days. But otherwise will leave the rest to figure out once I get there. Learned that asking the locals what they recommend is better than planning out every hour.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

That's very true

[SomeGuyCalledTom]

I'd like to think I'm a spur of the moment type, but in reality I get very little done unless I've planned for it. So I usually meet myself halfway by planning something right before I do it lol. Hell, when I flew from London to Miami on a redeye, I only thought to check if I needed a travel visa as I was headed to the airport! So, yeah, I need a PA to plan shit for me so I can delusionally continue my way of stumbling from one event to the next with minimal disruption 😂

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Lololol

[andreasderjuengere]

I am ''organized''. So I mostly won't need elaborate plans for the things I want to do (or need to) because I'm prepared; not to confuse with 'prepping' :D
In a way, this is planning - but it gives me the flexibility to respond to the unexpected.
Where I plan in a very detailed way: my profession (it is highly technical' and my/our products are quite complex).

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

👍👍🙂

[Tunasub]

I am a planner... only thing is... once the plan is in place I lean towards being spur of the moment.

I just need to know what is supposed to be happening, that way in my head I can formulate alternate plans just in case the main plan doesn't go as anticipated..

Yeah I'm fucked up like that for real...

Flying by seat of pants is a hell naw in my world..

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

👍👍🙂

[ShadezMcgee]

Planner for sure, but if something falls through or if I accomplish what I want to get done in a day and feel like doing something else, I can be spontaneous.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Good plan🙂

[GC4877]

Probably a mix of both because I'll make a plan but not necessarily follow it and i'll end up doing stuff on the spur of the moment. But interesting question.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Thanks? 🙂

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Oops that was supposed to be ! Lol

[Crazybeeguy]

If you fail to plan you plan to fail, but on the flip side I've done spur of the moment trips. To different states or international when I can, sometimes you need to take fuckitol.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

fuckitol lolol

[itzzzzniya]

spur of the moment type

sometimes planner type but mostly spur of the moment
When you plan things it isn't as fun as if they were just happening in the moment

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

That can be true

[itzzzzniya]

I know

[Jaylaaa2000]

I'm a even balance. I'm very spontaneous but also a planner, it really depends on what it is we are doing

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

👍👍

[Libbers]

I so wish I could be spur of the moment. But I need plans. I need to know it all. I hate it and I know I do it. But I can’t help it. Lol. I’m very ocd

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

That might change as you get older. I use to be big on planning everything now I'm somewhere in the middle

[The_Outlaw]

Both. Although I wish I'd planned more meticulously when I was younger. Take for example saving $$$$$ for a rainy day and wisely investing it. I'd be a day closer to retirement. Ah, well. Ya live ya learn.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

That's true

[PaynefulPleasures]

I'm a combination of both yes certain things I plan but other things well got go do it ✌️

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

👍👍

[pleasestopthis]

I'm definitely a planner type, I like to be prepared for things than could happen and then improvise a bit if something doesn't go according to what I thought

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Good plan🙂 lol

[TurboKid]

I am the greatest improviser both in my job and in my personal life. It's like my wife planned out a vacation before with me and we got hit by a storm on the boat. Now I can take over because she's panicking because things didn't go according to plan while everyone is vomiting on the boat. This is where I shine. Well, I don't really know what to do here. I'm just not panicking at all. But my wife takes comfort in me not panicking and vomiting like her.

[TurboKid]

But I can't really organize these things. That's so long-term. Well, I am actually awesome at long-term thinking in my job, but everywhere else, not so much except that I prefer to invest or save than spend money. But if all of us GaG types were all in a building and it was hit by a super earthquake with floors swaying and walls cracking and ceilings collapsing, you guys can all count on me to not panic in this situation because I never had any plan in the first place. I mean I don't know how to guide you all to safety but I can at least pick some random place to go if you all are panicking.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Loved your answer, well you could of left out the vomit 🤢 I already feel queasy and then read this🤮 lol

[TurboKid]

Hrrghhh... Hrghhhh. Wait a minute. [Gulp]. Blarrghhhh! One time I did a poo in a Japanese stall and I missed it. So I got the poop on the side and I tried to wipe it real quick but I probably left a smear. Then I left and some other guy rushed into the stall and it took a second before he vomited. I kept wondering if it my poo that did that or just the drinks.

[TurboKid]

Japanese toilet is sometimes like this and that's what I got above:

I totally missed it with my poop. But I was way drunk.

[TurboKid]

Had to scoop my poop into it and I was gagging the whole time like, "Wretch, gag, scoop, gag". And I left a huge smear on the floor but people were banging impatiently to get in and so I just figured a bit of smear is all over the floor is okay. So I left and the guy rushed in and within like a minute while I was washing my hands, I heard him vomiting so loud. I really think it was all my poop smears that did it because it's like the whole floor was smeared with my poop.

[ariadneR]

I'm def both. I like to be prepared for anything. Any outcome for any scenario.
But if you say hey let's go skydiving I'm already out the door

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Skydiving😱I don't think I could do that lololol

[ladsin]

Plan. I can’t deal with impromptu decisions. I’m pragmatic. I am definitely willing and able to do adventurous things and welcome them, but if you try to spring something on me at the last minute as a surprise I’ll just say no.

[loves2learn]

Planner all the way. Had to know my babies genders before they were born. Planner to a fault really.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

It is easier to plan for their arrival if know ahead of time, although I didn't find out with either of mine

[loves2learn]

It is. I had to know. Lol

[collie22]

i try to be spontaneous and go with the flow as long as i get to run in the morning and skate in the afternoon and eat my whole foods. hows that for answering

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

,👍🙂 lol

[collie22]

thank you :)

[ohshee]

Well it kind of depends on if I have anything planned for that day if I didn't. I guess that would be nice spur of the moment but sometimes I hate those days. Because by the time take a shower get dressed find your car keys happy days already over I always wish I would have planned it. Just a little bit better

[Jjpayne]

I'm more of a spur of the moment but I like to know my schedule... Know when it's time to relax vs time to be busy... Something like that so some minor planning on terms of knowing my future days and what they look like to some extent. Some predictably, predictably Is the word I'm looking for
