Sometimes you face something totally different that might have never happened before. So what you planned before will not work or that plan cannot get you where you want to be.

In your personal life and professional life, planning is very important and you have to adjust to keep up with the changes. Let me give you an example.

Suppose, you want to do business and sell flowers. So you opened a local flower shop where customers come and order flower bouquet for an anniversary, birthday, funeral, and different occasions. Everything is going according to your plan. Suddenly, coronavirus changes everything.

Now you cannot open your flower shop or you can open your shop for a limited period of time. People stay at home during Convid-19. So you do not see many customers in your shop. Your sales decrease and you are having a financial crisis. As a result, you find it hard to run your business.

So will you close your business or change your plan?

Now people stay at home, but most of the time they spend time online. You can build an E-commerce website where your customers will get everything. It would be like your virtual flower shop.

You can arrange everything on your site like birthday flowers, anniversary flowers, sympathy flowers, funeral flowers, congratulations flowers, thank you flowers and so on. You can do SEO and digital marketing to reach your target customers.

Your customers will visit your site and place orders directly from your E-commerce site. All you have to do is to send flowers to your customers on time. That's it.

In this way you can change your plan and run your business. You can also build a strong brand. When Convid-19 is over, you will definitely see more customers in your local flower shop.

If you can change your plan, you can adapt to the new situation and achieve your goals. What do you think about that? Please feel free to share your thoughts in the comment section.
