Talking about Predictions vs. Intentions
From Recovery to Readiness
In the world of forecasting, we use different structures depending on how certain we are about the future.
“Going to” (The Solid Plan): Use this for goals you have already decided on. This is for your 90-day roadmap.
Example: “In Q2, I am going to focus on my presentation skills.” (You have already made this decision).
“Will” (The Prediction or Sudden Decision): Use this when you are forecasting based on trends or making an offer in the moment.
Example: “I think the market will grow by 5% in June.” (A prediction).
Example: “That looks like a lot of work; I will help you with that buffer.” (A sudden decision).
