How to express succinctly “You plan you succeed if the conditions were like you expected”
You succeed at everything you plan (very short term) to do but only succeed if the condition were as like you had initially or you expected the conditions to be like
A bit like a pyrrhic victory- you are so good that you always succeed in any task but your actions may be misdirected or target of your actions simply isn't there at all when execution of the plan is set in motion- you are set in your plan.
