Overthinking. Anyone familiar with that?

Overthinking. Anyone familiar with that?

The helpless inability to stem the tide of ideas, thoughts and deliberations.

How often does it keep us from making a choice one way or another? You keep reviewing it, questioning your motives, and turning it over in your mind, until it practically drives you crazy.

What if something goes wrong? What if another decision might produce a better result? What if hidden flaws hurt you in the future? What if, what if, what if?

Sometimes, we just need to pick the horse, saddle ourselves on tight and leap in to that first gallop so that we get into our grooves and swing into forward momentum.

At other times, we need to slow down, to not move until we know how to move. Ask yourself, “What is the underlying energy that drives me? Is it uneasiness or calmness?”

Invite your mind to let go of thoughts, find inner peace and allow wisdom to lead the way.
