The human ego is almost always convinced that it can exert a greater influence on reality through perpetual actionism than is possible through pure inaction. However, the effects of inaction are actually just as immense as those of any action. The effects of perceived causal chains of a passive, non-intervening observer are of course completely different from those of an active agent. However, it is helpful to realise that non-action has at least as much "effect" as action. The ego tends to judge an action that it has conceived and supposedly planned to be more useful than an omission.
