The "Procrastination" episode of QI has nailed the culprit as perfectionism. And I agree that it is the reason for not having posted on all the topics that speak to me the most. I find it easier to finish posts on topics I care less about because I'm not worried that I got it "perfect"...
Series P: 12. Procrastination
A personal research journal-cum-blog for my general project of introducing computer software developers to Philosophy and how it can apply to day-to-day programming and design. It is named after my special project of applying Existentialism’s motto “existence precedes essence”, generating a common theoretical approach to a diverse range of programming topics. [disclaimers]
MOTTO
Philosophy: Design Patterns for ThinkingTM
"Philosophical Programming" is a style of computer software development that explicitly seeks inspiration for new techniques from Western Philosophy (with a capital P).
