40: Minimum Viable Plan

Summary

This is part two of my end of year series and is focused on the concept of a "minimum viable plan". This is an adaptation of agile software development methodology. Think of it as building the minimum plan to help get you where you want to go and then consistently iterating on that plan as you learn and move down the path to your most potential.
