212. Best Hits: Why We Overthink (and how to do it less!)
Episode description
Feeling stuck in overthinking mode? This episode is for you.
When you're trying to make a decision, it’s easy to think more research and better planning will finally bring clarity. But that's now how decision-making works.
In this episode, we explore:
The real reason we overthink, and how to catch it in the moment
How a sneaky pattern called "metric fixation" can distract you from what actually matters
Why long-term predictions based on short-term experiences often fail us
The difference between analysis paralysis and intentional research
How trial and error can teach you more than the perfect plan ever could
If you're craving momentum but feel blocked by your own thoughts, this conversation will help you shift from spinning to stepping forward with more confidence and less pressure to get it “right.”
