How to reword properly "Stick to the plan at any circumstances"?

Question

I changed "at" --> "under" and "stick" --> "adhere". Doesn't work. Google finds no results at all.

Answer 1

Let's look at your sentence:

Stick to the plan at any circumstances.

This sounds strange. Let's break it down:

• Stick to the plan is fine. Don't change it to adhere – that doesn't sound as good.

• At any circumstances sounds strange. Under any circumstances sounds more natural, but it doesn't fit really well with your sentence as a whole.

I would rephrase it like this:

Stick to the plan no matter what happens.

I think this sounds natural enough.

Answer 2

Hold to the plan anyhow.

Hold to the plan by any means.

You could use abide to/by as well, but abide to/by the plan doesn't sound great.
