Well???....Just Do It!

First one arrived...and then another, and another and...they don't just come to me, they probably came your way as well for one reason or another, we all know them I am sure... I call them the "fence kids", although they have not been kids for years. 
These are those dear people we all know who simply have a terrible time at deciding to initiate an action

One more test, one more postponement, need to ask one more person... and the answer is really rather simple: he who does nothing does not make mistakes, self-criticism can be much more devastating on something you did and did not fare well, then the criticism you dish out to yourself on something you did NOT do. In many cases, these fence-sitters know that it is better to act but the whole process simply overwhelms them and so they just let it ride...and ride...and ride...

Not only individuals can find themselves in such situations- organizations and nations can be much the same. 
Just observe the negotiation process between Israel and the Palestinians that went on for 9 months with no results- why? Who is afraid to take decisions?

The thing is this- cost/benefit- the minute our friendly fence-sitters will decide that the mistake of not doing anything becomes greater than the mistake of doing something and having it fail, then and only then will we see some serious "fence disengagement". 
Until then...we shall wait...and wait, and..

You may never know what results come of your action, but if you do nothing there will be no result.  (Mahatma Gandhi)
