Well, I endorse nonparalysis.

That said, sometimes thinking dilemmas through after I've made (and implemented) a decision and then, if I find a viable third option, noting it in my head so that it comes to mind more readily the next time I'm faced with a similar decision, can get me broad thinking and nonparalysis.
