motivational paralysis

When you're motivated to get up and get things done but you feel overwhelmed with having to choose where to start. After spending some time planning things out, you find yourself sitting around not really accomplishing anything.

On his day off, Jack wasn't sure how he wanted to spend his day so he spent the entire morning laying in his bed staring at the ceiling. A condition known as motivational paralysis.

Loot Paralysis

Typically found in most high pressure looter-shooter video games (or battle royale games), Loot Paralysis occurs whenever a player is faced with a large amount of valuable loot/items one may want to take with them, but has so much to organize or dump in order to take the items that they freeze up and cease thinking straight. This leads to not taking as much loot as one may wish to or can fit on their person and having to leave things behind or get killed by another player because they took too long.

"Hey, hurry up and loot your kill!"
"I'm trying, but they had really good stuff, I-I don't know what to take first..."
"Shake off the loot paralysis and hurry the fuck up, I hear more of them!"
