The experience of paralysis

I know a lot people talk about analysis paralysis in investing, but I had the opportunity to experience it last week. All I had to do was simply post my first Craigslist ad, but for whatever reason I froze and started thinking about reasons why to hold off on doing anything. I eventually started posting, but I find that it is a almost a daily battle to get over those mental blocks. What are some of the things you all do to keep yourselves action oriented?

A business plan, long and short term goals, a daily to-do-list. When something isn't working...change it. Continuously watch for changes you can make to improve. Read all the local news. Attend all the local planning and zoning meetings. Read "Think and Grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill and look into other books he's written.
