don't think, just do

There's much to be said about thinking and planning and perfecting, but I'm putting too much thought into all that.  There's even more to be said about just doing!

With Spring's arrival and the warmer temps with it, there's a sense of joyous abandon that is hovering in the air.  Doors and windows are being thrown open.  Flip flops are being tossed on.  Shorts are baring legs that are happy to be free from their coverings.  Sleeveless shirts are setting arms into unrestrained movement. With all these things come a can-do feeling...that feeling that day-to-day life, no matter how challenging, will be a little easier and motivations will run high.  It appears to be a time when people are willing to take a few more chances without thinking so hard about everything.  

Maybe it just seems like people are getting to the doing quicker because the sun and the air is such an energy boost, and increased energy seems to translate to increased confidence.  Sometimes the best way to figure things out is just to do them, and confidence helps this outlook.  Even if something doesn't play out the way it's been planned, the 'failure' of that doesn't seem so insurmountable when you are in a doing frame of mind!  Why?  You can adjust and redo!

There's much to be said about thinking and planning and perfecting, but there can be bigger gains in outcomes by just doing.

~~ Why the following clip? Because it's a visual experience of the joy of just doing...and Phoebe IS joyous abandon! :) ~~
