Fortunately I’ve learned to start a bit earlier than that, most of the time, in my late twenties 🥲. To regular of an adrenaline rush is detrimental to health, so I would recommend trying to mitigate it…
I’ve found that i can sometimes break this tendency by leveraging my ADHD’s impulsiveness symptoms… “I have something to do? Let’s not plan it at all and do it right now. Not in 5 minutes, right now.”
As long as I’m not forced to think about it twice, it can work. The result won’t be as great as if I overanalyzed the task beforehand, though!

Not the first time I’ve thought “do it before you start thinking about it”.
