You Don’t Need a Plan. You Need a Direction
Most people are stuck not because they lack intelligence, but because they’re waiting for a perfect plan.

They overthink. They compare. They draft 5-year goals, build second brains, and stall. Waiting for the moment when everything “makes sense.”
But here’s the truth:
Clarity does not come before motion. It comes from it.
The Myth of the Master Plan
You won’t think your way into the perfect life.
You won’t plan your way into certainty.
And you won’t predict how your next move will change you.
Life doesn’t reward planners. It rewards starters. People who move, build, test, and adapt fast.
If you’re waiting to feel “ready,” you’ll be waiting forever.
What You Actually Need: A Direction
You don’t need a 50-step plan.
You need a direction worth walking toward. That’s it.
Direction is different from a goal. It’s not a fixed outcome. It’s a compass, not a map.
A few examples:
-
“Make things that reduce pain for developers”
-
“Earn freedom through small, valuable tools”
-
“Build something I’d still want to use if no one noticed it”
That’s enough. Then you move.

You will learn faster in 3 days of motion than 3 months of planning.
Each step reveals what the next one should be.
The Truth: You Are Not Lost. You Are Stalled.
And the cure is not another plan.
The cure is movement in a meaningful direction. Even if it’s messy. Especially if it’s messy.
So stop asking, “What’s the perfect move?”
Start asking, “What’s the next move I can’t regret?”
Then go.
