<p>@jgrantf <strong>Just do it.</strong></p>
<p>I tend to have a habit of overthinking things and end up not doing them ultimately. Planning the perfect execution was the cover for procrastination. I would read up on a certain subject (say, photography), watch tutorials, and even procure tools (e.g. rent a DSLR), but never actually get round to just doing it. Underneath was a secret fear of failure.&nbsp;</p>
<p><em>But it's all about the trying and the failing and the getting up again</em> in improving any skill and eventually excelling.</p>
<p>But recently, I have just been doing things without overthinking, and it has dramatically helped me get over <em>that sticky trap of analysis paralysis</em>.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Anyone can relate?</p>

<p>Recently I have taken few steps to change my lifestyle which really has dramatically improved my life. It all started with some mild chest pain few months back, and I visited the doctors for a consultation. And as usual, there were many tests prescribed, and it kept on increasing, without any significant findings. So this continued for almost a month, I even changed the doctor, with the feeling that, someone else may find the root cause accurately. But nothing helped. I just ended up spending more , doing more and more tests.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Finally one fine day, I decided to change my life style. I first sat down and analyzed, to decide on what is a must I should change. Two things, came in my end and I decided to start on them : Doing regular exercise and try to have a good sleep. Because they are complimentary to each other, you can't feel good to do exercise without a very good sleep.&nbsp;</p>
<p>So I started on these almost 5 months back, and so far the results are tremendous. All my pains are gone. I am feeling more energetic and fresh, and even if I do not do exercise, I feel the difference.&nbsp;</p>
<p>I think, these two are very important for each of us and every one should pursue these at the minimum. &nbsp;</p>
