Fear of a future negative consequence from inaction often encourages proactive thinking to get ahead of the issue and cut it off at the pass. Anytime we create a solution for a problem that has yet to materialize, we are thought to be proactive, acting in anticipation to avoid an avoidable problem. Enacting solutions before the problem occurs sounds smart. Unless the problem was never going to happen in the first place.
I don't think planning is the problem, executing prematurely is. I think that is the intent of this post, just making a minor clarification.
This idea is so very counterintuitive.
Have to sit with it for a bit before knowing how adopting this doesn't just leave me with paralysis :)
