I am executing a stored procedure with out activating the execution Plan (Ctr + K)

It is taking 2 sec. I want to optimize that query. To optimize that query i activated the execution plan and again run the stored procedure. It is taking about 12 sec. I doesn't know exactly whether the execution plan that was shown was correct or not.

Can anyone tell me why it is happening so ?
and the execution plan that was giving is correct or not ?

Thanx,
Ramnadh.

The estimated plan that is shown by Ctrl-L in Query Analyzer is a "best guess" at what might happen if the query was executed. The query plan enabled by Ctrl-K and shown after a procedure execution via Ctrl-E is a report of the plan that was actually used for that execution.
