SAYING

IF YOU CAN'T USE YOUR HEAD, YOU HAVE TO USE YOUR FEET.

Submitter comment: THE MEANING OF THIS SAYING IS THAT IF YOU DO NOT THINK AND PLAN
AHEAD FIRST, YOU WILL END UP RE-TRACING YOUR STEPS, MAKING MORE WORK
FOR YOURSELF THAN WHAT YOU INITIALLY SET OUT TO ACCOMPLISH.
IT NEVER FAILS THAT THIS SAYING ALWAYS COMES TRUE.
