Quote by Gauis Petronius Arbiter
We trained hard ... but it seemed that every time we were beginning to form up into teams we would be reorganized. I was to learn later in life that we tend to meet any new situation by reorganizing; and a wonderful method it can be for creating the illusion of progress while producing confusion, inefficiency, and demoralization
Summary

The speaker reflects on their experience of training and forming teams, only to constantly face reorganization. They later come to understand that this pattern of constantly restructuring in response to change can hinder productivity and negatively impact morale. Ultimately, it suggests that stability and consistency can be more beneficial than constant reorganization in achieving true progress.
