>thinking about everything you do is the ultimate analysis paralysis
One thing I've noticed is that people who try to live according to a particular philosophy or philosophical understanding tend to be less effective than people who either ignore it entirely or only apply it to limited situations. This observation seems to hold even amongst public intellectuals, which one would assume would skew heavily towards philosophers.

I wonder if this is the reason why.
