We associate intelligence with he ability to plan. We are impressed by planning, even when the objectives is silly. Many things in life require planning, but it can become a compulsive habit. If I feel I have to plan everything, it means that I do not trust myself to react correctly in some future situation. But what makes me think in I can do it better now before the situation has even arisen? How should I know what to say to some people when I have not even seen them yet? Compulsive planning ensures that I will always live in the past, that I will never fully meet a new situation. Intelligence isn't an old hat ---- it is always new. We have to trust the intelligence that is in us ---- to distrust it is to undermine it.♥
