Choice paralysis: a passage from the book.
The number is large enough that you want to shut the book. Eleven years. Fourteen. Look at a number like that for five minutes before you round it down. The size of it isn't a verdict on you, or on what kind of person you turn out to be. It's the price of a mechanism nobody ever explained to you, and it's the reason there are nine more chapters after this one.
From chapter 2: The three-month window
What if your figures go down the page rather than up? That counts, and it counts in your favour, because a falling condition usually means the idea got smaller and more real, which is the direction you want. Ask the harder question anyway. When it fell, did you start?
From chapter 4: The number that keeps moving
That is how the book looks at “choice paralysis”: one idea at a time, with a step you can take right away. Of course, this is only one idea from the book. So, if this passage speaks to you, the full chapter goes further, and it ends with an exercise you can do the same evening.
