Technique 7: The Art of Overthinking

Step 6: The Overthinking Loop

Also known as the "Paralysis of Analysis," this step is where the creative process goes off the rails. You start to question every decision, every choice, every color palette. Your brain turns into a never-ending loop of "what ifs" and "maybes." It's like trying to thread an infinitely long needle through an infinitely thin hole.

Steve's Tips:

• Repeat the phrase "I'm a creative genius" to yourself 17 times before making a decision.
• Use a random number generator to determine your creative choices. It's like flipping a coin, but with more math.
• Consult with experts in unrelated fields. Who better to know about art than a neurosurgeon?

And for the love of all things good and holy, do not, I repeat, DO NOT, watch an entire season of "The Great British Baking Show" while working on your project. It will consume you.
