The one thing I've always done is to try not to overcomplicate anything.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Anything I've done that really worked happened because, either by sheer will or a lack of options, I was incredibly focused on one problem.
Unless you're involved with thinking about what you're doing, you end up doing the same thing over and over, and that becomes tedious and, in the end, defeating.
I just try to keep it simple, not let too many outside things influence me.
Through the learning experiences, I've been trying to eliminate mistakes. I don't want the same mistake to happen twice.
Basically, everything I try to do is to present an alternative to what somebody else is doing.
I overthink a lot of things.
Luckily, in my case, I have managed, by writing, to do the one thing that I always wanted to do.
Always do something different from the others.
Usually, I'm over-analyzing things that have to do with my own actions.
What I often do is just think of a completely obtuse thing to do, almost the wrong thing to do. That often works because you start a different approach, something no one has tried.
