Conundrum

Noun:
A situation or happening that insists upon itself creating an irrational answer.

1. The phrase "Not planning ahead is planning for failure" is a conundrum. By not planning you are planning which means you aren't not planning, therefore you can't plan for failure at all, because the only way to plan for failure is to not plan at all but by not planning you are planning.
