Dissolving Planning into Doing into Flow

When you set up a plan and a schedule, your life can flourish and when you don’t set up a plan, all of your good intentions can come to naught.  This is basic logic and why many of us are creating schedules and organizing our lives.  But is all this planning and organizing really productive or is it merely an elaborate devised displacement activity that keeps us from directly experiencing.

The planning is framework to help us get from point A to point B but is there really anywhere to get.  It is in the doing and in the scheduling that our lives manifest.  It is in the scheduling that the doing is born and it is in the doing that the scheduling is remembered.  The scheduling and the doing are not separate, they are one and merged in each other in the doing.

It is important to understand that we must merge our entire being with the doing and thus remove the separation between the external organizing principles and the direct experience of the activities those principles represent.  When the scheduling and the doing are truly merged, we flow with the direction of our lives.  That is why we must view our planning activities as the unborn manifestation of an unknown, unexperienced doing.  Where the scheduling and the doing are a merged activity despite any temporal dislocations.
