Using a military analogy, your plan is like a set of precise commands to the servo-mechanism of the Tomahawk cruise missile, which the missile relies on to help reach its predetermined target, even though the system allows it to adapt to changing topographical conditions.

Transposed to the real world, we folks also need to tweak and make course corrections, where necessary, in order to reach our end in mind.

[Author's Note for the uninitiated:

The Reticular Activating System, or better known as the RAS, in our brain system functions operationally almost like the servo-mechanism of the Tomahawk cruise missile.]
