I try to write a first prototype without any regards to best practices. When I'm doing a rewrite (of a prototype, not a full product), by then I already have the structure in my mind and perfectionism then can't get in the way. For example I don't design unnecessarily complex sub systems just to get the flexibility I don't need.

Thats a good tactic, I have done similar things in the past by using mind maps to first create an overview which then created more flow and less overthinking.

"Unnecessarily complex sub systems just to get the flexibility I don't need." I would be lying if I said that I am not familiar with this... :)
