I've realized some of my analysis paralysis comes from weighing opportunity cost. With a few different ideas of what to do, I keep thinking about the potential of each one, and how if I pick and focus on one it will put the others on hold...which leaves me going nowhere.
For example, if I'm thinking between 1) invest in real estate, 2) learning copywriting to start offering it as a business, or 3) creating a new physical product/widget.
Of course, everything has pros and cons, but when faced with a few entirely different choices, how do you choose? How can you measure the opportunity cost of picking one and not the others?
