| Analysis paralysis is what this is called. It sounds like you're afraid of failing. Why must everything be great? Give yourself permission to make mistakes. You can improve it later. Just get started. there's nothing wrong with planning, but you are overdoing it. There is nothing wrong with personal development, but maybe read one thing at a time, apply it, then move on with something else. You will make mistakes. It may not be as great as you want it to be. Your business probably will fail. You get up and try again. Read the above three lines again, until it sinks in. It won't be perfect. Not at first, not ever. You strive for perfection, though. I don't mean to discourage you, by the way. I just want you to have a more realistic view of things. Everybody wants to be the best. You will have competition. I do agree with writing out your goals, so you have a clearer idea of where you need to go and what you need to do. What are you thinking so much about? Write your goals, make deadlines, and get started toward accomplishing them. I was like this, also. I play the piano, though. I was so worried about being perfect that I started to dread practicing. Then I didn't enjoy it anymore. I am still working on getting over this and begin to enjoy practicing again. If you are happy and working toward your purpose, the universe will assist you. Don't worry so much about success.
