One small suggestion is to fake it 'til you make it. In other words, give your new ideas some life and push (in your spare time) until you attain that critical point where you've validated your assumptions and have to choose. It's a "dip a toe in" approach that gives you a fallback if you fail. Either that or just jump and forget all the other crap I just said. Great to hear from you Sean and thanks for the kind words.

I have to admit that lately I've been floundering a bit. Stuck in "analysis paralysis" and wondering if I really have the wherewithal to do the things I want to do with my business and my life. Getting back to Google Reader after maybe 3 weeks or so away, and this post and a couple of others I read today really helped me. Thanks for keeping your thoughts out there. I always learn something or have an "a-ha" moment when I catch up with your stuff. Sean Hi Mark,

Thanks for sharing your thoughts and the Zen saying. I have to admit that lately I’ve been floundering a bit. Stuck in “analysis paralysis” and wondering if I really have the wherewithal to do the things I want to do with my business and my life. Getting back to Google Reader after maybe 3 weeks or so away, and this post and a couple of others I read today really helped me.

Thanks for keeping your thoughts out there. I always learn something or have an “a-ha” moment when I catch up with your stuff.

Sean

If I'm two days behind on my google reader, Mark, I'm doing something either very right or very wrong. Glad I'm doing it with you and yams. :) I like how I missed this post.

I agree with your point of never knowing where the journey may lead, and even if the first step doesn't pan out, it may expose you to an entire world of opportunity you never would have been privy to otherwise. Great comments. Thanks so much Shahrzad.
