Stop being "Mr. Yes, But...", overanalyzing to the point of paralytic indecision and missed opportunities, and yield to my initial emotions and instincts, which often are right all along.

I was about to make a job offer out of expediency to someone I was lukewarm about. My own boss asked me to wait a day to sort out my gut feelings. We had the same reservations and it was a no-go.

I’m dragging my heels on a romance that seems to be transpiring like spontaneous combustion. I’m into her, and go out of my way to see her. Our encounters end with hugs and sometimes, kisses. We haven’t even gone out yet! Um, this is happening at work.

All I have to do is proceed, but instead I’m googling her and seeking vague advice, looking for red flags, and waiting to be nudged.
