The bull doesn’t care about your game plan. Hard days won’t either. Adjust in real time.

A plan is a guess made before the situation existed, and the situation is under no obligation to cooperate. That does not make planning useless, it makes the first thirty seconds of information worth more than the plan. People lose most often by continuing to run a script that stopped matching the day. Adjusting is not an admission that the plan was bad.

Build your next plan with one decision point in it: what you will check early, and what you will change if it is not going your way. Keep the fallback simple enough to use under pressure. Then judge how fast you noticed.
