Small Beginning, Successful Endings is the title of Tao Te Ching 64
From the "For Thought" comment about this chapter in
the translation I'm reading:
"This chapter is an overview of modern management practice. The management cycle can be remembered with the acronym, PACE, which stands for plan-act-control-evaluate. Most people lay plans for projects and act. However, many people fail to control and evaluate their actions by making sure that they really are going according to plan. They become impatient and take shortcuts which lead them away from their goal instead of toward it."
Luckyhonu began as just a passing idea about making a tool folks could find useful. Now that I'm getting such great feedback, there are all kinds of improvements I want to add. This "Small Beginnings, Successful Endings" was a reminder that I shouldn't be leaping forward to the action part with out making the plan first. And I need to do this in all areas of my life right now.
Here's to MAKING THE PLAN! After I take a nap.
