Do you find you think yourself out of action?
Are you paralyzed by decision?
Would of, could of, should of – sound familiar? – Spending hours thinking about how things could have been different…….
All symptoms of a classic over-thinker.
But, it’s hardly surprising when we live in a world crammed full of overwhelming choices.
Self examination and self awareness is healthy, and should be encouraged, whilst ruminating or obsessing over a problem can be detrimental to our health, both physically and mentally.
When Socrates said, “The unexamined life is not worth living,” he wanted us to challenge our beliefs and take the time to examine and reflect upon our lives. However spending hours creating a distorted reality in our minds is counter-productive.
