Hi Nils,
Yep, the shiny object syndrome is something that we will have to battle our whole life, I believe. It’s the desire to become better, more effective and with better speed, that push us to explore more and more. But at the same time, the exploration for more takes away from the quality of what we are already doing. It takes us off track.
Great input, thank you!

I was stuck in this rut for more than a year, consuming copious amounts of videos on everything from internet marketing to personal improvement to spirituality and so on.

Much better to simplify things. For me, that means focusing on reading books instead of watching videos or reading too many articles online. With books it’s easy to organize the knowledge and make use of it.
