So, i was doing the usual, reading some manhwas or novels/og histories, when all of a sudden, popped up on my mind.
I usually am too perfectionst, like, too much, on my own work. Usually i think "wow, now i have to do all the reactions, is there something i'm missing? Is there something that i have to mention of the world? How is the other characters doing in the main time when my MC is working hard?"
And because this, i feel, pretty usually, stuck on my own story, stuck thinking what i have to do to it be better, to the point where i stop writing, stop enjoying, just to think, and then i give up.
And then, i realized. Why i have to do all of this, like NOW? Why i have to see only the things that "lack"? The story is only in the beginning.
So, DON'T BE TOO MUCH perfectionist. I know that its a pretty damn good thing to recognize that you lack of skills, it opens a path where you can be better.
But, when you think you "know" that something is lacking on your story, when its just the beginning, ignore it! You can cover this hole more after the story.
When you are much focused on what you think that is missing, you stop in the mid, you find yourself surrounded with walls, and it will continue until you give up.
So, DON'T GIVE UP, go on your own time. Obviously, don't jump on the reactions, they are important, but you DON'T have to focus too much on this, specially when you are newbie at it and don't have much experience on the dialogue rythm and things like that.
You will catch your own rythm with the time.
And the most important thing, ENJOY THE PROCESS! Your mental health its the most important thing. You have to have fun.

I'm sorry for my bad english, but i think that the idea that i wanted to pass, was catched. I'm not personally a good writer, and i procrastinate a lot, but i hope that what i wrote on this topic helps someone.
If you have some tips like that, that is most for the people that is stuck on their own history, please leave bellow. Everyone experience, at least once, this feeling. I'm excited to see what you guys did to surpass this.
