Out of Plan, Out of Business....5 Minute Freewrite Daily Prompt

Howdy Freewriters! Welcome to my 5 Minute Freewrite blog🙂.

“Make a plan! Make a plan!” they say.

“Did you make a plan?” they asked.

I smiled, hiding my nervousness. I had made no plan at all. Was I really going to say, “I don’t have a plan?” No way! At least not in front of them all. I would look so irresponsible, so I lied: “Yes, I have a plan.”

Deep down, guilt gnawed at my consciousness. You know you don’t have a plan! it called out to me.

Why not just admit it? Don't they say, "problem shared is problem solved!" my consciousness screamed.

I want to, my thoughts countered, but I can’t...

They said, “Out of plan, out of business.”

How else can I crumble before them and admit that I really have not made myself a plan? I will look like a scarecrow. Remembering how I had recited the mantra “Out of plan, out of business,” I felt weak.

But I have to admit... I keep losing, just because I’m too prideful to admit: "I don’t have a plan."

Thanks for reading❤️
