If you're getting paralysis: That means that you need to write down how you feel and you need to write down what you know about the problem.

From there:

1. Write down and solve/suggest for what you know on the edges of the problem

2. Extremely pinpoint what the problem is

3. Talk it out with the rubber duck/coworkers

4. Escalate the issue.

5. Design out the solution and leave question marks where you can't solve it.

6. Go out for a walk
