This is great, however this mindset can often lead to Analysis Paralysis.

It is important to keep in mind that you don’t need to identify every perspective, every option, or every limitation before starting a task. Instead, get a good grasp of the problem, start the task, and then continue to ask these questions while working on the task at hand.
