What is the plan

I remember when I was younger my Aunt Doreen pointed out our family says "whats the plan" a lot.

I was probably 7 or 8 when she pointed it out...

and I remember thinking

"what is weird about wanting a plan?"

Maybe it was a bit weird,

but

growing up we usually had a plan.

I learned to love having a plan.

In college I learned the benefit to goal-orientated planning.

I have been hooked ever since...

Since embarking on our med journey it has required a lot of forward thinking, thoughtful planning.

BK has done an awesome job, getting the work done required for a successful plan.

I am so grateful.

BK is finishing 3rd year of med school and it is time to plan again....

Time to plan 4th year....

This requires picking a specialty, planning away rotations, planning vacation, interview and test time off.

I knew this was hanging out there, but I was trying not to push BK, because it may be our team but it is his career...

Last night we sat down and mapped it out.

Ahhhhh.

I was so pumped to have a plan.

Even thought it is a rough outline, it is a plan.

I will take it.

I know it lacks spontaneity,

but I love that BK loves to plan too:)
