People should always discuss things in detail before taking an action that will affect them all as well as the people around them.
However, this is never an easy task.
A discussion can go on and on endlessly causing unnecessary delays and eventually resulting in complete failure because of hesitations and indecision. Let's all sink in the quicksand, alright...
On the other hand, rushing into things head-on because it should have been done yesterday may bring seemingly quick results, which in the long-run fall apart completely because of incoherency. Watch out for the bottomless pit, oops...
A combination of the two could perhaps be a better plan of approach.
