“If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you'll never get it done.”

Bruce Lee

Simplified Meaning:

When you spend a lot of time just thinking about something without actually doing anything, you won't finish it. Imagine you have homework to do. If you keep wondering how to start, what tools you'll need, or what grades you'll get, you might not start it at all. Instead, if you just begin writing, even if it’s not perfect, you’re likely to finish faster. This idea is also useful in real life goals like starting a new hobby or exercising. Instead of planning every tiny detail, just taking the first step can help you make progress. So, to get things done, it’s better to act rather than overthink.
