Paralysis by Analysis




Contemplating the next move is usually a good thing, but when this analysis leads to delayed, incomplete, incoherent and even total stagnation it renders many an event a problem.

My friend Peter says that seems to be the way I approach life especially in matters to do with love.

Mmh!

PAUSE 1
Now, that was meant to be a pause as I analyse...(tehehe) Did not get paralysed (yet)

Ultimately it well connects to an earlier blog on about "reverse psychology - a new old game" and subsequently "whatever happened to courtship" I think having seen how many a heart are broken, and examining (read analysing) the trends these days plus off course my own experience. Am bound to take on the adage - once beaten...

PAUSE 2
Its been a good 2 weeks or so since the last pause, not taking things lightly but rather life getting on heavy with duty.

At the end of the day, one has to realise all relatiohships are two way, it's give and take. If you are out to use people, then be ready to be used by them. I am opting for the road that leads to a more fulfilling and lasting relationship.

Joining me?

perhaps your friend is true:
ask yourself, when X plays his rook, and you are supposed to make the next move, do you
a) play the next move
b) check google for the next move
c) take a snack and wait for X to play another move
d) ask your friend if you should make the next move
e) run

hahaha Ken...For me i do c: take a snack and wait for X to play another move...

ps: must it be X? It could be a Y ;) hahaha

Kenneth said...

If it is a Y, then all predictability and analysis is thrown out the window.

Sacchiel said...

Very astute, it's not my forte though.

Mo said...

Ken, there has never been predictability where the 'Y' is concerned!

Sacchiel, Really? thank you! Pleasant surprise.

Mo,very astute -> me.
I gather,from my "Introduction to Biology",brown-beaten it may be that, Men have the chromosomes pairing of XY and women have the pairing of XX.And it is the Man who determines the sex.
This is irrelevant to when it comes to relating and commitment and how people treat each other. I hope to join you on that road.
