Following intuition

I built two brackets to hang some step ladders.

I had an urge to pause and make diagrams and schematics — my normal practice.

But instead, I said to myself: “I’m just going to do this intuitively.”

So I estimated a few cuts and made some design choices.

And I’m quite pleased with the results.

Sometimes, we get so caught up in careful thinking that it gets in the way of careful doing.

In some situations, movement is the teacher.
