Thought for the Day: On Balance and Learning

Two things I heard today just converged for me. The first one was a report from a meeting where a senior government official, considering a learning proposal, exclaimed:

"More results, less process!"

The other is a quote sent to me by a wise colleague from the Balaton Group, a cherished network, which is simply attributed as being a Japanese Proverb:

"Vision without action is just a dream, but action without vision is a nightmare."

As learning practitioners, I guess our challenge is to find this delicate balance.
