Planning without action

There is no meaning to planning without doing. Without action, planning is moot.
Planning is not an end in itself, but a means towards action. Action is the ultimate end. Action is what validates/negates the plan. Without action a plan is never right or wrong, it just exists. We resort to planning to avoid getting confused about action, nothing more.

Planning for the sake of planning is the single most dangerous thing about any productivity system.
Don’t just plan. Do! Even if unsure of the plan.

Sometimes action is more important than direction
