Overthinking: A Technique of Wrongness

This is the art of turning a simple decision into an intricate maze of self-doubt.

The Process:

1. Identify the Obvious Solution

Find the one thing that will obviously solve the problem, but then...

2. Question the Obvious Solution

Wonder if there's something better, but not really sure what that something is, so...

3. Create a New Problem to Replace the Old One

Find a new issue that's almost as big as the old one, but slightly more complicated.

The Cycle Continues...

Repeat steps 1-3 ad infinitum, until the solution is lost in a sea of self-doubt.
