Stop shopping start doing. - All these decisions I call shopping, where you do a lot of research but never commit. At some point you have to start working on something. - I bet you have a few candidates for what things you want to do/use. Pick one, start using it. Only then can you figure out if that's the right choice or whether you need to do/try something else on your short list. If you are too nervous about something because it all matters too much, then start with some throwaway thing that is related that you won't mind if it turns out a mess. Usually I pick something with a problem area that I have mainly been "shopping" for, and put the tool/language/data/etc through it's paces. If you don't know where to start, re-create/copy something that already exists. That will reduce the need for planning for your first steps. It's been said novelist Jack Kerouac re-typed F. Scott Fitzgerald's the Great Gatsby twice because he that it was favorite book and wanted to write like a book like that, by actively putting those words on paper he got a better understanding of how to write.
