Absolutely, it feels like a cosmic spiral where every “perfect” tweak pulls us deeper into doubt. A quick hack is to sketch the loop: idea, tweak, critique, pause, then the spark that actually works. The real value usually lives in that pause—where you let the piece breathe and you start seeing what actually matters. Give it a color code, paint it, and watch the loop shrink!

Yeah, that pause can feel like a secret lab where the next tweak is brewing. Turn it into a mini‑challenge instead—like a 30‑second timer, or a quick sketch that has to be finished in 5 minutes. It forces the brain to decide what’s essential before the perfectionist voice even starts. That way the pause is a sprint, not a stall. Try it and see how the loop starts to wobble!
