Episode description

I have struggled TONS with overthinking. Let's talk about it.

1. Leads you to do nothing

2. Warps your thinking

3. Creates problems that most likely don't exist


Time Stamps:

1:18 - Overthinking gets you to do nothing
4:24 - Overthinking tends to warp through thinking
7:16 - Overthinking creates problems
10:24 - You need to make something with your time

Quotes:

1:32 - "If you think too much about something - it will prevent you from doing anything."

3:10 - "My mind is great, but it's not my body, it's not my hands, it's not my ears, it's not my face, it's not my nose - you can't experience everything from your mind."

4:03 - "If you're overthinking it's really easy to get on that feeling of doing nothing."

6:18 - "Recognize the facts, and don't let your overthinking change the facts."

7:54 - "If we think about problems we don't have, eventually we'll probably have them. If we think about solutions we don't have, eventually we'll probably have them."

8:42 - "We don't need to create problems where there are no problems there, thank you very much."

10:30 - "If there's not already a roller coaster for you to ride on, it's difficult to create a roller-coaster in 5 minutes and you can create a plan, but it's nice if it's already planned out."

10:39 - "You've already done all the thinking - you can focus on doing."
