“Knowing is not enough. Knowing too much can encourage us to procrastinate. There's a certain point when continuing to know at the expense of doing allows the mess to grow further.”
Abby Covert, How to Make Sense of Any Mess

“The only way to know what happens next is to do it.”
Abby Covert, How to Make Sense of Any Mess

“Our language choices change how we use our time and energy. For every word we use to describe where we want to go, there's another word that we're walking away from.”
Abby Covert, How to Make Sense of Any Mess
