"Stopping at the surface" is often considered a bad habit, but is it really so? For many things, not necessarily. Dare to try, take the first step as soon as possible, summarize experience in trial and error, maybe that's the way to success.
Being overly cautious, thinking back and forth repeatedly without taking action, without honing in practice, often leads to staying at the first step and being far from real success.
As long as you don't repeatedly make the same mistakes.
Trying out all sorts of things, even if you fail, isn't this life quite interesting?
