As a U Penn alum, I am by default a Ben Franklin fan. One of his many insightful quotes that is resonating with me currently is, “Never confuse motion with action.”
Many entrepreneurship experts are a big fan of doing. “Just get going”, they say! However, doing by itself is just motion. True action has preparation, a plan and a purpose behind it.
Your goals and direction may shift over time, but don’t just get into motion for the sake of movement.
Remember, there is a difference between doing work towards a goal and just being busy.
