OVERTHINKING

-

 Overthinking doesn't sound so bad; surface-thinking is good, right???



When we overthink our judgments get cloudy and stress gets elevated; so here are some ways to free yourself from overthinking.

1 Awareness about your surrounding 

Before you start to cope with your habit of overthinking you need to learn to be aware of what is happening. Any time you find yourself crowded with conflicting thoughts; step back and give a thought about the situation.


2 Distract yourself into happiness

Sometimes it's helpful to distract yourself with positive and healthy alternatives like meditation, dancing, or just a smile that can distract you from an endless spiral of thoughts. Live in the moment this is a  key to learn how to stop overthinking.
It's impossible to rehash yesterday or worry about tomorrow when you're living in the present. Mindfulness will help you become more aware of here and now.

3 Put things into a wider perspective

It's always easy to make things bigger; so the next time you catch yourself making a mountain out of a molehill acknowledge your present situation.
Mindfulness helps us to bring undistorted perceptions to the present moment. When we reflect, we are deliberately setting aside some time to think about our past actions, current priorities, and future goals.

4 Accept your best

When you do your best, accept it as such know that you've done what you could do. In the end, accept yourself. Remember every opportunity is a new beginning, a place to start again. whatever happens, HAPPENS!

Overthinking is something that can happen to anyone but if you have a great system for dealing with it you can at least ward off some of the negative, anxious, stressful thinking, and turn it into something useful and effective.👍👍

Worrying is like a rocking chair
it gives you something to do 
but it doesn't get you anywhere.

I even overthink my overthinking, it's okay to overthink.

  As intriguing and confusing as the term may sound, it may surprise you to know how simple of a concept the word represents.   Ikigai translates literally from Japanese as “Reason for being.”     So, to be frank, one may confuse the term with whatever they are passionate about, but following one’s passion is not the ultimatum of life. But finding passion in the work you do that benefits society simultaneously, that is the moment you find inner peace and true purpose in life.   When you do find such a zone where you could spend hours and hours on your profession and never get tired when you get that feeling of self-confidence that you are the best at what you do, the   satisfaction that you receive from whatever job however small it may seem, is something that words can never express. And getting paid for it is just the cherry on top of the cake.     It all sounds so simple, right?  Well,  the hard part is to figure out which route to ta...
