Feeling stuck after browsing too many design ideas

I was making a flyer for my dog grooming shop and wanted it to look nice. I looked online for ideas, but there were too many choices. Now I'm confused about how to choose a style. How do you find inspiration without getting overwhelmed?

Pinterest almost paralyzed me with options last year.

It's like the app is designed to keep you scrolling forever without actually making a choice. You end up with a board full of dream kitchens but no plan to pick a paint color. That endless scroll can trick your brain into feeling productive when you're just stuck. Setting a timer before you open it forces a decision point.

You're saying it's "like the app is designed to keep you scrolling forever" but come on, it's just Pinterest. Not everything needs a deep psychological breakdown. I get that you can waste time looking at dream kitchens you'll never build, but you're acting like it's some brain hacking conspiracy. You can literally close the tab whenever you want. Setting a timer before you open it sounds like you're trying to solve a problem you created yourself. People spent hours flipping through magazines back in the day and nobody called that a trap.
