Enlightenment and Capcaity Planning

This was a quote I saw in, of all places, a book on IT capacity planning:

Busy work does not accrue enlightenment.

Western culture too often glorifies hours clocked as productive work. If you don't take time off to come up for air and reflect on what you're doing, how are you going to know when you're wrong?

I guess you know you're wrong when something goes wrong. Then you have to stop and examine what caused it. By that time, it is too late.
