Do you suffer from "analysis paralysis" too? Much of what I do is risk analysis on projects, which is what it sounds like: what are the risks of doing a process one way vs another way? What is our risk tolerance or how risky are we? So weighing risk is a good thing right?  Unfortunately, it is difficult to turn off the risk analysis machine when I am not working, so it often spills into my personal life, and occasionally causes analysis paralysis. So what is the cure?  Make a decision.  Just decide and ride it out.  If it didn't work, make a different decision, and keep going.  When we learn to take reasonable risks and just try something, we become better and faster at it.  We can tell earlier what the benefits are and if/when they outweigh the risks.  Oh, we will still be surprised by the frequent bonus benefit or risks, but then that information goes into our database of experiences and ability to analyze the next one. What decision has paralyzed you? What are the risks one way vs another? Can you make a decision today to move one way or another? Expanding Excellence - Personal Paradise Builders Blueprint, Productivity Training (expanding-excellence.com)
