Could you be using the planning as a form of procrastination? As a way to feel like you're making progress without tackling the parts that scare you?

Making a plan is a great way to break down a big task, but it's also a way to avoid facing difficulties.

My plans are usually a few dooedles in Notability. I might also let an idea simmer for a few weeks to let various problems resurface. After I start doing anything, I find that the best (design) lessons are learned through experimentation.

Go for a walk, come back and crank out some code. You can draw bridges all day, but eventually you must break soil and face the task at hand.
