A similar trick I've sometimes used to pull myself out of analysis paralysis (or "death by choice") is to toss a coin or roll a die - then often I find I either just go with the random choice or suddenly have a specific preference for the other. Either that or soon down the randomly chosen path I find an issue and restart on another path - but starting at random highlighted that key decision making point I was previously not seeing.

It sounds glib, and doesn't always work, but sometimes it is surprisingly effective. When it doesn't work you are in no worse position than you started.
