Why smart people stay stuck in research mode

I recently had coffee with a university colleague who told me she was in the middle of planning a workshop. She had bought a couple of books about hosting workshops, had created a spreadsheet projecting attendance under different scenarios, and was now comparing ticketing platforms. But she still hadn’t invited a single person. We talked about how none of that research was necessarily a waste of time. When you love learning, figuring out the best approach can be enjoyable in itself. But every answer can produce another question, and before you know it, preparation has become the project. Worse
