Quote by Robert Trout
We fear doing too little when we should do more. Then atone by doing too much, when perhaps we should do less.
Summary
This quote highlights the tendency of humans to swing between extremes in our actions. When we feel that we have not done enough, we may overcompensate by taking on too much. Conversely, when we realize that we have taken on too much, we may feel the need to atone for it by doing even more. It serves as a reminder to find a balance in our actions, avoiding the trap of excessive overachievement or underachievement. It encourages us to recognize when we should do more and when doing less may actually be the answer.
