Being "on top of" vs "behind of"
When your goal is to put the box in another place in a dark room, you can choose to concentrate in start pushing without focusing on other forces coming from the other side OR you can first use your torch to enlighten from above overseeing the whole process, getting to see things that may affect the operation (moving a box) in advance.
I guess this analogy can point out the difference between “doing something” and “take care of getting something done“.
What do you think?
