It is applicable to a situation when a person/team/organization spends too much time analyzing a problem that they are left with too little time to work on the ideas generated by the discussion. I have suffered from this disease myself in the past.

Here are some symptoms of paralysis by analysis

  • You spend more time reading blogs about blogging and less time on writing posts for your blogs
  • You have not changed your blog theme in the last 3 years because you have been searching for the perfect theme
  • You never get time to build links for your blog because you were busy reading articles about how to get links
  • You have not sent an email to another blogger asking for link/interview/review because you are not sure if he will read it
