Excessive reviewing can be from lack of trust in the system, or pure procrastination while appearing productive.

Nobody starts out trusting. You have to see it work before you can stop worrying.

The busywork aspect can be mitigated by allocating the daily review time and then refusing to fiddle with it. You might still procrastinate in other ways, but one less way is still good.



"To no longer worry about something requires worrying about it a lot first."
