If this is more a question than a statement, I would look at these key problems:

>Still, their awareness of their gap between their ambitions and their inability to act causes intense self-criticism.

Figure out why you are not allowed to act. How do others act without enough knowledge? They approach decisions differently.

>In March 2019, doctors told Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Corey Knebel that it was his call whether to end his baseball season early to repair a torn ligament in his elbow. Knebel said during a press conference, “It sucked that it was my decision. I hated that. I really wish the doctor would have just said, ‘Here is what we’re doing.’” He wanted some other omnipotent entity to choose for him.

*edit: A Freudian slip? 'Other omnipotent entity' should be 'other omniscience entity'. Omnipotence doesn't help with making the best decisions.
