A volunteer at the food bank said my sorting was 'too slow, just get it in the bin' and honestly it helped.

Sometimes the best help is permission to stop overthinking it.

Totally! I've been there, trying to make everything perfect. Like webb.keith said, you just need someone to tell you "good enough" is actually fine. That permission to be a little messy gets the real work done.

Yeah, that "permission to be a little messy" is the real key. I can spin my wheels for hours trying to polish something that was already fine. It's not even about being lazy, it's about getting stuck on tiny details that don't actually matter to the final result. Letting go of that need for perfect is the only way I ever finish anything.
