This speaks truth and really resonates with me.

My husband used to frequently tell me that I was procrastinating and he didn’t understand that I was researching and analyzing.

The meme is perfect!

I particularly like the defining the core signal. The “why” is important so this is very helpful.

I decided a long time ago to always just get 3 sources. And, I need to learn how to embrace “good enough”. I’ve already been working on trusting my intuition.

Thanks so much!

Absolutely outstanding explanation. I’m going to read this often to remind me I’m not flawed or lazy… I do know and I just let it be and go with what I know to be true and let that be my guide. I am light years ahead. But the last few years have overwhelmed me and I have been paralyzed. Thank you so much.

Thank you, very useful. I've recently started using "Good Enough" to begin, but have also added "Adjust Later" as Part B. It's been much easier to start when "Good Enough; Adjust Later" is my mantra.

At 65 I've been procrastinating that way my entire life. Fear of the wrong choice is debilitating.

So it was hard to believe that a year and 3 months into a carnivore lifestyle reversed that indecision into a flow chart of getting things done without the anxiety, confusion and what I call superstitious decision making based on anxiety and fear instead of pragmatism and logic.

My fear of missing out (FOMO) is almost eliminated. My flow chart of decision making is clear using step by step logic and making adjustments as I go. My joy and optimism are at an all time high. The benefits are endless physically and mentally.

This sounds like an infomercial but I'm not selling anything. It's even cheaper to live when you get rid of all the sugars, starches, carbohydrates and seed oils. My pre-diabetes, high blood pressure and fatty liver were gone in 3 months. Lost 105 lbs with 20 more to go. No more CPAP machine at night. All with no change in exercise.

My "why" for Carnivore was extreme hip pain from bursitis/arthritis. Pain is reduced now 90% and no more limping.

Yet I still fit as an introvert - but with a much clearer and relaxed outlook.

Here's how to start; Dr. Berry's made videos to answer all your questions: https://www.youtube.com/@KenDBerryMD/search?query=carnivore%20keto%20basics

Start Keto then go Carnivore. Do his 90 day challenge. Even 30 days. It's all free.

You're welcome in advance.

And don't procrastinate on this!

I do the easy stuff first but leave the hard work and procrastinate. It is overwhelming!

I am an introvert and absolutely do not relate to this. If anything, I rush into things to get over them and avoid the unnecessary prolonged exposure to stimuli I did not request.

Trusting inner signal .. the gut feeling is important.

This can actually cut out all the noise and help take the decision faster without getting confused because of overload of information.

I am an introvert and i do understand what you are saying .. overanalysis can really be a bug paralysis for introverts.

At some point we need say - enough and take the decision. The inner voice helps the best in such time.

Ooft—this spoke to my soul. I am still in bed thinking about the 7 things I planned to do yesterday, procrastinating.

I experimented with imagining I have three options in any decision or conversation. Say something nice, bad or neutral. It somewhat reduced complexity.

However, a couple times I was procrastinating or refusing a conversation to regret that later, but then last year one day I first sent a connection request on LinkedIn, which was accepted, no words of both, until one evening when I got the impulse to write that DM right now, and did it!
