I have deliberately had to discipline myself from spending too much time just exploring what can be done as opposed to actually getting something done !
Funny you mention this. My wife doesn't understand how I can just do the same thing over and over and not get sick of it. Repetition is the key to success.
I told her "If you were standing in front of 100 people with all eyes and ears affixed, you would do the same".
As someone said "Unspectacular preparation brings glorious presentation"
