I Have a Plan and by Round Two It Is Gone

01 · The Situation

You prepared. You had a clear plan. Forty seconds into the fight the plan is irrelevant. You are reacting. You do not know how to hold onto what you prepared.

02 · Your Turn

Before your next sparring, write down one specific action — just one. Something concrete like "step right after every combination." Go spar. Every round, ask yourself: am I still doing the one thing? If you lost it, try to remember when. Come back with an honest answer about when the plan disappeared.
