Violently Execute

A good plan violently executed right now is far better than a perfect plan executed next week.

General George S. Patton

Most successful people spend a lot of time planning. But, at a certain point, your plan is good enough. Hammering out a few more details isn’t going to help.

Take the latest iteration of my once complicated time tracking routine. I could probably come up with a better system, one that captures efficiency/effectiveness so I could analyze and tweak my study habits. But the tally marks seem to be working well enough.

Better that I execute on this right now than spend time trying to build the perfect plan by next week.
