A creature of habit

When I am faced with a challenge, I follow the same steps:

1. Decide what to do using a combination of logic and intuition/inspiration

2. Fret, doubt my choices, and envision all possible ways my choice could go wrong.

3. When the time comes to act, take a deep breath and do what I decided in step one.

If

choice and follow-through are right next to each other, I can sometimes

skip step two. Sometimes step one and step two are all mixed up

together. If step 3 is delayed from step 1, then I will spend a

significant portion of the intervening time on step 2. The intensity of

step 2 is directly proportional to the size of the challenge.

 I really wish I could figure out how to skip step 2.
