We feel instinctive pressure to act, to fix, to respond — even when the situation calls for patience. This is action bias: the tendency to prefer doing something over doing nothing, regardless of whether action improves the outcome. In many cases — a volatile market, an emotional conflict, an unclear situation — the best intervention is no intervention. Sitting with discomfort is a skill.
The point
Action bias makes us prefer doing something over doing nothing — but patience is often the better strategy.
