I've bumped into three disparate ideas that have coalesced into a single harmonious principle. Embracing chaos and unpredictability, thinking without extending excessive cognitive attention and focus enhances creativity, and working to create a future rather than trying to anticipate future events all speak to the value of acting and reacting rather than planning and executing.
We always know where we start when we face a problem or establish a goal. I favor developing a plan that has a reasonable probability of success that requires minimal time and energy over blindly executing a detailed protocol. Get the plan started and adjust as dictated by events. Acting shakes out the unforeseen. Used wisely, unanticipated difficulties are easily altered to look more like unexpected opportunities.
