People often find comfort in planning as it provides a sense of progress and accomplishment, despite not actually moving towards their goals. This activity, perceived as constructive, offers high reward with low risk, leading to a false sense of achievement. However, such behavior can harm confidence and self-worth over time. Common reasons for excessive planning include a lack of confidence and a fear of failure, where individuals use planning as a substitute for taking genuine action towards their aspirations.
