[1]. Default to action.

There is a maxim worth adopting.

That is one way to end up with too much to do.

Maybe depending on the person and which side they come from. Personally I come from the side of defaulting to doing nothing. Deciding against action is easy to me. Defaulting to action means avoiding the doldrums of apathy. I imagine more are like me than otherwise.

Or exactly the other way around.
