AI Roundtable Open Poll · 1 models
In Samuel Johnson's Rasselas there's a quote that goes "Nothing [...] will ever be attempted, if all possible objections must be first overcome." This is a great example of acting despite obstacles and objections, of decisive action. I want a truly exhaustive list of works which have that quote at their core: decisive action. Works that have more quotes and passages like the one from Rasselas. Give me an exhaustive list of works. We will exclude self-help, pop-science, pop-psychology and overtly religious texts. Focus on non-mainstream and lesser-known works (full works, not just a poem or an essay). Focus on works that function as exhortations, as the cure for the paralysis to act.
Answer: The AI Roundtable recommends obscure classics like Blondel's *L'Action* and Addison's *Cato* to cure analysis paralysis through decisive action. (All 1 models agreed)

Final Summary
The AI Roundtable, represented by Claude Fable 5, answered the call for deep, non-mainstream literature that exhorts decisive action over paralysis. The model bypassed pop-psychology to curate a sophisticated list of lesser-known philosophical and dramatic works, such as Maurice Blondel's *L'Action* and Joseph Addison's *Cato*. These works serve as profound, existential calls to action, emphasizing that waiting to overcome every objection leads only to stagnation.
