I don't believe in "causes"...
I don't believe in "agendas"...
I don't even believe in "plans"...
I DO believe in planning for the future, as it's foolish to act from the assumption that "there is no tomorrow"... But I still don't think anyone has a crystal ball into the future.
I don't see any contradiction. Is there one...?
Here's (what might be) a subtle distinction:
I make plans for the future, but just don't count on things happening according to those plans. In fact, I plan for the fact that, almost invariably, things do not work out as I expect.
