This came at a good time for me, here are thoughts I had:
Going to try “scheduled time” for this thinking, 1 evening a week. It batches abyss-thinking for all areas of my life. Unsure if this is a good way to do it or not.
Some of the helping-questions (plus feedback from others) have helped me immediately. For other life-areas, I’m less-certain what the “hard/icky thing I’m avoiding doing” is, since there are multiple plausible options. This might mean I’m getting un-bottlenecked on abyss-thinking and am now bottlenecked on run-of-the-mill option-generating and decision-making.
A few items are more “should I do what’s most congruent with my personality, or force myself to do things that’re less-congruent with my personality?”. In hindsight it will be obvious, but it’s not like this in particular is a solved problem.
