The traditional business plan as is taught in Business Schools is not relevant to small entrepreneurs and solopreneurs because for the most part it is designed for investors and is an overkill. This leaves a gap where entrepreneurs can fall where they have no plan and just either follow the money or allow clients to guide where their businesses go.
It also means that these entrepreneurs are constantly putting out fires and focusing on urgent tasks that are maybe short term and the important but not urgent tasks always fall at the bottom of the to-do list. I have had to become incredibly focused in my business due to the fact that I started home schooling my kids in 2015 and only had one day per week to work in my business. But at the start, I resisted planning mostly due to the fact that the creative in me had found my fifteen year career as a mergers and acquisitions lawyer too restrictive and I wanted to be free.
It took me four years to reach my income goal but sadly in 2019, I had a car accident and in order to get my business back on track, I had to be even more focused than before. It took me a year and not only did I regain the regular income prior to the car accident but I multiplied it by 2.5.
Where does the intuitive piece come in? It comes in checking in your body how the plan feels so that you are aligned with it. Most plans drawn purely with your mind will feel off in your body. And sadly, if they do, you will probably never try to implement them.
