Discussion on: How do you stop the desire to learn too much?

I'm right there with you! I'm currently finishing up the last 1/4 of a bootcamp course on full-stack development and I'm stalled out. Every time I come up against something I don't know I want to research and read and watch videos and listen to talks on it rather than just throw code up and see if I can do it with what I already know I know. I end up overloading my brain with way too much information that isn't directly relevant to the project and get overwhelmed and lose track of what I'm doing.

I also have a hard time focusing. I'm working on it, but sometimes everything seems to be a distraction, even when I'm by myself with headphones on with nothing open but my IDE.

In a way, it's nice to know I'm not the only one having these issues, but overall it SUCKS.

Best of luck to us both, and our overflowing brains!
