Quick Hits

How do you avoid analysis paralysis and using research to procrastinate?


Listen Later

If you enjoy learning and going down the rabbit trail to see what information leads to the next, it is easy to get lost in researching.

 

Brandon Mahoney avoids this by giving himself a deadline of when he has to be done with the research and start putting it into action.

 

Catherine Fitzgerald agreed that she has a lack of motivation unless she has a deadline.

 

Stewart Wiggins thought about it from the group aspect, how do you keep a group on task? Identify the problem and create a road map to solving it.

 

The challenge is wanting to know enough that you eliminate the risk of not making the perfect choice. And that is impossible. Sometimes you have to make a decision based on what you know and then adjust as you learn additional information by doing.

 

How do you decide when you know enough to stop researching and start doing?
