Planning can be the worst form of procrastination.

Taka Iguchi -

We've all heard it.

If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail.

Yea yea yea. But here's the thing. There comes a moment in any project, paper, or decision when you know you've gathered all the info you need.

  • One more conversation won't help significantly.
  • One more web search won't help significantly.
  • One more article, blog or youtube video won't help significantly.

The only thing left to do is...

make a decision

Stop talking about it. Stop "processing" it. Stop thinking about it.

If you are the point where you know you've gathered 90% of the helpful information possible, make the call.

Planning can be the worst form of procrastination.

Now use your time gained to move another project to the decision point.
