That, Rafael, is High-level political "planning" in Mexico:

"We will build the biggest and better project of doing good for our citizens in just our six years of government. VOTE US!"

Its advantage is, it mets to perfection the rule of "one activity without predecessors and one activity without succesors". The same as saying: "The project should have one start and one finish" in order to get a correct critical path.

The schedule should have only one activity without succesors and one activity without predecessors.

well said it happens in many case

Proper planning logic flow through a general common sense in otherwords golden mind

David its a good job you stopped at planner the next step may well have been plonker
Then where would you be, asking questions about others souls I guess.

But the problem with the word is all in the spelling not the Italian although #3 does in fact seem to do justice to what some postings make the reader feel like.

Anyway I feel you are a jolly fine planner even if you do tend to have anger issues brought on by overdosing on silly posts.

Reguritate
Whats that then David?
Saying what others have said but changing it a little?
However inspiration from Charlie those pearls of cunning wisdom I agree it inspires me to carry on writing

I am so glad that your soul is now cleansed by your confession do you feel better by sharing this with the PP group

Maybe your next step of the 10 will be to admit that you are a planner but you will try and stay a sober planner

I think the pp group could make real progress with you David and as you know we are all here for you, especially if you require help with your anger management

It is after all a path less travelled by many planners

Good luck

David

Nice one Andrew... but what I think you were looking for is:

I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by
Douglas Adams
English humorist & science fiction novelist (1952 – 2001)

Sorry for being pedantic but I was researching quotations like that for a forecasting paper I am writing. My favourite, I found in ‘The Analysis of Time Series: An Inroduction’ by Chris Chatfield (although he cites it as Anonymous):

Forecasting is the art of saying what will happen, and then explaining why it didn’t!
