Over thinking is the route of all evil in all my life. For one I get absolutely nothing done when I over think, but what causes us to that all the time. In terms of myself it has to do with self confidence. I am not confident in my skills and potential, so I end up not pushing myself enough to do all the things that I would like to accomplish, for example this blog. For years I struggled with simply getting started. Then it ballooned into not knowing and not believing that I can write about a certain topic.
TBH, overthinking does nothing for us but make us worry and believe that we are not capable. It causes us to stress out more than we should, and stops us for completing the task at hand. The only possible good I have ever experience from overthinking is the abundance ideas that come to mind.
So, one of the things that I do to help my brain calm down is to plan. I try my hardest create and stick to my plan for the day. Sometimes I would plan out the week, but that does not work for me. What I’ll do is have have a running todo list in my planner. Then look over that list every night and select what I think I can accomplish the next day and write that down in my daily planner along with things that must get done. This way my mind is sort of clear and I’m not trying to keep track of the 201+ things in my head.
Another thing I like to do is to journal about my day or to future journal, scripting whatever you want to call it. This helps me get all my worries about the day out of my mind. Journaling to me is sort of like praying and as I stated in a previous post, that’s how I communicate to God about any and everything and I always get an answer on how to proceed with my issues. Future journaling is like planning out my life to me and helps me get everything into perspective and how I should proceed with my current life to get to where I want.
In closing, just jump in and stop thinking about if you’re good enough or if you have the right equipment to start your goals. the only thing holding you back is you, Just do it.
