Paralysis by Analysis: Stop planning and start JKD Training

What did Bruce Lee say about JKD Training *?

“If you spend too long thinking about a thing, you’ll never get it done.” – Bruce Lee. Wise words from the master himself. And never have I found them to be more true than in my JKD Training journey this past summer. See, I had this glorious stretch of sun-drenched months all to myself. Time to finally whip myself into shape, right? Oh, the plans I made! The perfect JKD Training regime, the ideal diet, the meticulously crafted schedule… it was going to be epic.

Except, it wasn’t.

I spent weeks, weeks I tell you, trawling through training websites, comparing workout plans, agonizing over whether to focus my JKD training on weapons, movement, bag work etc and generally getting lost in a sea of information overload. “Paralysis by analysis”, they call it. And boy, was I paralyzed.

So, what was the result of over-planning my JKD Training?

With the benefit of hindsight, I can see with painful clarity that even just 20 minutes of JKD training shadowboxing every day would have put me in a far better position than I’m in now. Consistency trumps perfection, every single time.

And that’s the JKD lesson I want to hammer home here. Don’t get bogged down in the minutiae of finding the “perfect” plan. Just get started. Something, anything, is better than nothing.

What are the simple truths about JKD Training?

• Action breeds motivation: Once you start seeing even small results, you’ll be fired up to keep going.
• Consistency builds habits: It’s about making exercise a regular part of your life, not a sporadic burst of intense effort.
• Imperfect is still progress: Don’t beat yourself up if you miss a day or don’t nail every workout. Just keep moving forward.

So, ditch the endless planning and embrace the “just do it” mentality. Your future self will thank you.
