Jack of all trades, master of none. I seem live this idiom far to often. My life seems to bounce from one deficiency of skill or knowledge to another, some minor some not so minor. My latest is plumbing, I know almost nothing about the details of proper procedures and techniques but circumstances have forced me to learn. I am extremely grateful that there is YouTube, I can't imagine attempting what I am about to do without it. Not that what I am doing is rocket science (😏) but as Master Brinker would say, "black belts need to be control freaks". And I refuse to do a bad or mediocre job on this. So research, thought and planning must go into this, now if I only had more hours in the day.
It is obvious to me that this of course applies to my Kung Fu. But I have found the more I analyze and research, the more I procrastinate actually taking action. So off I go to take action.
YES!!! Analysis can be the genesis of paralysis. Taking action is the only way to mastery. Sometimes we get so caught up in trying to do everything perfect the first try that we never get around to actually take the first try.
