“So, what good is planning?” I repeated. “What would happen if we did NO planning?”
“You know, that’s a great question. I don’t know that anything would change. To know what to do, tomorrow, we just have to look at what we did yesterday.”
“So, just look at yesterday, do the same thing again and we can expect the same result?” I summarized.
Walter nodded his head and chuckled, “Pretty much. And at the end of the year, our revenue number would be about the same, hopefully a little better.”
“So, how long could you keep that up?” I prodded. “I mean, successfully doing the same thing over and over and over? Could you do that, forever?”
“Well, not forever,” Walter smiled. “At some point, something will change.”
“Something will change?” I asked.
Something will change for sure. If its not broke we will surely break it just so we won’t rest on our laurels.
