“Begin with the end” is based on the principle that “All things are created twice”.
There is a mental or first creation, and a physical or second creation to all things.
Take the construction of house for example. You create every detail before you ever hammer the first nail into place. You try to get a clear sense of what kind of house you want. Then you reduce it to a blue print and develop construction plans. All of this is done before the earth is touched. It not then in that second creation, the physical creation you will have to make expensive changes that may double the cost of your home.
You have to make sure that the blueprint, the first creation is really what you want that you have thought every thing through. Then you put into bricks and mortar. Each day you go to the construction shed and pull out the blueprint to get the marching orders for the day. So you begin with the end in the mind
The carpenters rule is Measure Twice Cut Once
This thumb rule will apply to all vocation
To the extent to which we understand the principles of two creations and accept the responsibilities of both we act within and enlarge the borders of proactivity

While this is true, even here, the plan is subject to change and the end product may end up totally different from the original due to umpteen number of causes.
It is good to have a plan but be willing and ready to succumb to changes for one's betterment!
Dear Mouli
Any action is to be planned first in mind / paper - and it is to be executed in real so as to achieve great results. While executing changes are unavoidable for better results.
