“After all, a goal without a plan is just a wish.” – Chapter 3: Swot Analysis, “Mastering the Construction Game”

 

In daily life, a goal without a plan can feel like just a hopeful idea. For instance, if someone wants to get fit but doesn’t plan out a workout schedule or set achievable milestones, they're less likely to follow through. Similarly, financial goals might remain out of reach without a budget or savings plan.  In construction, a project goal needs a detailed plan to guide every phase. This includes timelines, resource allocation, and risk management. So, a clear plan is essential for turning aspirations into achievements. Clark B.
