What kinds of things do you do with only a modicum of contemplation?

Asked by wundayatta (58741points) March 24th, 2009

There’s stuff we plan well in advance, and there’s stuff we barely think about before launching into it. I suspect that different people have different styles in terms of thinking about what they will do before they do it.

I tend not to think about most stuff much. In general, I prefer to improvise my way through life. Preparation is too painful. My wife organizes and plans every single little thing. Her lists are a marvel to behold. I keep everything in my head, and if I lose it, it can’t have been that important.

Shopping, meeting with clients, making music, dealing with complicated stuff—I just can’t think about it much before hand. My wife can’t not think about everything (movie lists, shopping lists, to do lists) before she does it.
