Q: I asked a question recently regarding my tendency to make excuses to not pursue something, but it looks like it wasn't answered, so I'll ask something similar. In general, do you think it's more beneficial to spend significant time to make an ideal plan to follow, or to iterate through several lackluster plans very quickly? I really want to know what you think
A: if you spend a lot of time trying to make the perfect plan it might not connect well to actual reality. the more experience you get, the better you will be at making plans. so it depends how much experience you have in what you're doing. if you don't have much experience, then make smaller plans. But the option you mentioned for smaller plans also called them 'lackluster' which i don't think is really fair. Why did you not allow yourself the option of making small plans that are also good
