The enemy often tries to make us attempt and start many projects so
that we will be overwhelmed with too many tasks, and therefore achieve
nothing and leave everything unfinished. Sometimes he even suggests the
wish to undertake some excellent work that he foresees we will never
accomplish. This is to distract us from the prosecution of some less
excellent work that we would have easily completed. He does not care
how many plans and beginnings we make, provided nothing is finished. –
