In our family, we call the delay of execution “paralysis of analysis.” I get through this often by collaborating and processing w/a friend or co-worker. It gives me other perspectives, which helps me confidence that I’ve considered all angles. These video tips were wonderful insights!

Absolutely, another thing that's very common is FOBO (fear of better options)! So glad you found the video tips insightful!

I got over my fear of failure by saying it's an on-going plan - I put down the tasks/things I know and the next activity in an area would be "Investigate/plan what next". It allowed me to accept flexibility in my plans - a personal informal change control process that works as I can now accept that an area may not continue and that's not a fail!
