What Proverbs Actually Teaches About Planning

Proverbs praises prudence, foresight, diligence, counsel, and preparation while repeatedly reminding the reader that human beings do not control every outcome.

Prepare enough that avoidable chaos is not mistaken for spirituality, and remain humble enough that the plan can change when reality, counsel, responsibility, or God's providence requires it.

Plan seriously. Hold humbly. That is different from both anxious control and spiritualized drift.
