Are you an overthinker, what are you thinking about? No matter what condition we find ourselves in life, at least we are still alive to enjoy the previledge of excersing out thinking faculty,even though thinking about a situation too much wouldn't change a thing. Thoughts are powerful energetic particles that we shouldn't misuse and abuse as they flow out of our minds and affect our bodies and minds. in a variety of ways. Hence, the saying; " as a man thinketh in his heart, so he becomes".

It has also been proven that most things we think about are about thesame. You'd still think about them the next day, the day after tomorrow and the next. Thus it follows that one should always entertain positive thoughts while discarding the negatives and useless. When you focus more attention to a particular train of thought, you expend more energy towards it and your life grows in proportion to the results of that thoughts consequent of your actions or inactions. Hence, thinking too much about the past could make one remain at a spot for a long time. Worse is that people spent alot of time and energy thinking about a little issue, feeding the unimportant thought till it metarmophose into a major problem in one's life.

Ofcourse, I understand that sometimes we can't help thinking too much about a problem even though it's quite obvious that there's nothing much we could do about it. But whenever you are caught in such a situation, first ask yourself. "Would this still matter in the next 3 to 4 years from now or even in the coming weeks or months?". With this tricky question, you could easily pull yourself out of the dilemma and devout your time and mental capacity to other things that would count and help you improve over the problem you are thinking about irrespective of wether or not they might manifest in the nearest future.

Another way of overcoming overthinking is avoid procrastinating. By taking actions as at when due, even though on small matters like cleaning the house or doing the laundry would go a long way in decluttering your mind and reducing stress. Because every little step you take forward gives one a sense of conviction. Even though when it's time to face the big matters that you have been afraid of, taking a little action irrespective of the outcome would give you some level of courage to go on. It is also important for you to always remember that you don't have absolute control of the way things turn out in life. There would also be mistakes and regrets but all that would be in the past. Even the people you whose life seem to be perfect have had their own fair share of mistakes and indecisions in the past . But they have also use them as opportunities to learn and grow. Afterall it is said that " the people who turn out best are the ones who make the best of how things turn out".

So, it first make sense overthinking everything except if you are working on the plan. Be that as it may, no one knows what tomorrow might bring, no one even knows what new thing is likely to happen the next hour. Lastly, don't forget to share your thoughts 😁💝
