Analyzation is Limitation

Analyzation is Limitation

i just heard this statement this morning and i was wondering what you think about it. we talk about "paralysis analysis" or "paralysis of analysis", whatever you want to call it. i believe it's a very true statement. it limits us from taking action and it keeps us from moving outside of our comfort zone. what is your take on this? thanks.

No Action, No Deals!

oh yes... I'm very familiar with analysis paralysis, and it did hold me back. A couple of years ago, I would spend hours, days, reading about rei; even after I joined the SA, I would diligently read the lessons, complete the workbooks, and make sure I was passing the 'tests' with flying colors (that's how I was raised-study hard, don't make mistakes, get A's), but... I wasn't taking real action, so nothing was happening!
It wasn't until I started putting in offers that things started moving. Since taking action, I have stopped over-analyzing things; I have made mistakes, but those mistakes have taught me valuable lessons that I could never learn from reading a book.

Thank you Linda, for bringing up this topic; very true.
