There really is at some point - a point where you have too much information. What I mean by this, is that there's only so much you can read about before doing something. At the end of the day, there's only so much you can read about. A few years ago during the pandemic, I got really into the idea of paramotoring. Well, I'm in lockdown, and if I want to do something crazy like Paramotoring, I could read up on paramotoring. Well, so I looked up how do I do it, what to do when the engine cuts out, how high can I fly, how much does it cost, what do I need etc etc I could keep reading. I could become an expert, even. But I still haven't done it. At some point I have to fly, it's like reading about swimming but never jumping in the pool because I'm afraid of drowning or something At some point, you've got to fly, at some point you've got to just take that dive. I think there really is something as too much information, there is a time to read and prepare, and then there is a time do and act and do and act

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice; in practice, there is.

Many people talk about the lockdown period as one of the most creative period of their life, reading millions of books, and learned new things. And I was in Japan, no lockdown for us, just a bunch of strict rules but essentially normal life. I feel like I wasted my time living normally 😅 It make sense?

on occasion i've over-researched the spontaneity right out of an activity, to the point of no longer wanting to do it

I agree! Sometimes you never feel prepared enough, but should just trust and jump into actual experience. Yes, it obviously doesn’t apply to all situations.
