Well done!
Do you think your previous hesitation has to do with your Japanese heritage - that you don’t wanna release something until you feel that it is rigorously conceptualised? I think the Japanese has a tendency of holding themselves back until they feel the timing is right
By your description, I just might be Japanese myself.

This may be why you settle the nitty-gritty first before getting down to the cognitively demanding work - either as a way of procrastination or as a way to let ideas germinate in your head

I do think there is an element of that when it comes to me in the past being hesitant in expressing my thoughts, feelings, and ideas. But I also am very grateful that my parents made the decision to have me in the States and raised me in the US because I feel I am both understanding of the importance of the collective (Japanese culture) but at the same time have an appreciation for maintaining a sense of self and at times prioritizing the individual ahead of the collective (US culture).
