The Irrelevant Preparation II

This blog is written mostly tongue in cheek. Some points may be informative. Please provide your feedback.
If you suffer from self-irrelevancy, please seek professional advice.

Hello. Was my preparation irrelevant? Definitely. As someone who prepared a lot for everything in the past, what I've realized is preparing too much is not only irrelevant, but overrated.
Why? Because all preparation can do is give you security. Too much preparation gives you a false sense of security. And too much security equals complacency, which is worse than fear. Indeed, many of the greatest achievements in the world have resulted from fear. I can't think of any that have come from complacency.
In something where you are supposed to "act natural", which really should be everything we do (otherwise you're in the wrong situation), your preparation is irrelevant.

Regards,
Irrelevant
