Fire, Ready Aim

I've been around some people lately that have a real bias for action.  I enjoy that phrase, though the people who (only) have that approach can be speed-blind at times.

It's been interesting to watch them in this effort we're involved in, as they MUST do it fast, even though it's clearly acknowledged that we'll have to "tweak" the output afterwards.  I think they've sold themselves up the river, as we all know they won't be tweaking, but rather doing full blown determination of what it is that they're trying to achieve exactly. Or 're-achieve' to be precise.

There's a 0% likelihood that we'll actually get to their overall objective with this approach, and yet it's also unacknowledged at this point that they need to be seen to be doing something.  That's a powerful motivator for action - even if we can all agree its the wrong action to take.

It's fascinating to be part of efforts like this, the way a slow-motion car crash in a movie is fascinating.
