Prophecy 5: "More Words Will Be Said, Less Done"

It has been foreseen, by the great prophets of meetingdom, that on this day, the words will be plentiful, the coffee will be lukewarm, and the actual work will be, well, less done.

As foretold, in the annals of meeting history, the conference room will be filled with the sounds of "I just need to say this one thing, and maybe, possibly, potentially, we can move forward?"

The prophets of meetings have seen it, the signs are clear: the whiteboard will be covered in scribbles, the projector will be on, but the actual presentation will be, "in progress, but not quite done yet."

The people will be seated, the chairs will be arranged in a "circle of confusion", and the air will be thick with the weight of " maybe's" and " possibly's."

And so, we shall see it come to pass, for on this day, the words will be many, the minutes will be few, and the actual progress will be, none to be found.

But fear not, for on the next day, the cycle will repeat, and the words will flow like the "River of Procrastination."
