When you have back up plans, the things that fall through don’t really matter. I mean, sure, you would have rather gotten the first choice result, but if you know in advance, it is easier to accept.

Known result.

Acceptable alternative.

Closer to the original goal.

Completely fine.

Within limits.

Make the back up plans now, then you won’t be completely caught off guard, and need to readjust your mindset. It is almost as if you knew it was going to come through this way and that is totally, entirely okay.
