Aiayn Thiruvalluvar Says

எண்ணித் துணிக கருமம் துணிந்தபின் 

எண்ணுவம் என்பது இழுக்கு. (467)

होना प्रवृत्त कर्म में, करके सोच-विचार ।
‘हो कर प्रवृत्त सोच लें’, है यह गलत विचार ॥ (४६७)

Explanation by Scholars:

Consider, and then undertake a matter; after having undertaken it, to say "We will consider," is folly.

செய்யத் தகுந்த செயலையும் வழிகளை எண்ணிய பிறகே துணிந்து தொடங்க வேண்டும், துணிந்த பின் எண்ணிப் பார்க்கலாம் என்பது குற்றமாகும்.

எண்ணித் துணிக கருமம் = Think & Take Bold Decision to proceed for action

துணிந்தபின் எண்ணுவமென்ப திழுக்கு= Decisions during the course is disgrace (shame), the project will fail.
