I learn best by doing. So I limit my research scope to domains close to what might be practical to do myself.

Sure I go down infotainment rabbit holes. I justify infotainment as infotainment. I do not pretend it's research.

I've been happier since I stopped making grand plans. Since I got over myself.

Happier since I measured my growth by what I did rather than what I knew.

YMMV. Good luck.
