Adaptive and Provisional Decision-Making

Brazilian decisions are provisional, not final. The initial choice sets a direction, but everyone expects adaptation as circumstances change. This isn’t indecisiveness—it’s realistic recognition that situations evolve and good decision-making evolves with them.

When you commit to a plan in Brazil, you’re committing to the goal, not to rigid execution of every specified step. Flexibility to adjust is assumed. The person who insists on executing the original plan despite changed circumstances isn’t showing admirable commitment—they’re showing failure to read reality. Make decisions, commit to directions, but preserve flexibility.

Expect that today’s choice may need modification tomorrow. What matters is reaching the objective through whatever path works, not following the original plan regardless of conditions.
