Choice Paralysis
Choice Paralysis
Choice Paralysis is the decision-making failure mode where too many options reduce the chance of action. In Brevvie Python + AI — Section 9: Pitching — The Daily Skill, it explains why the lesson prefers Two-Options Trick over long menus of possible next steps.
Core points from the source
