8 ways you can beat overthinking |
- The problem is rarely
the problem.
99% of the
harm is caused in your heart, by you and your thoughts.
1% of the harm is caused by reality, what actually happens
and the outcome.
Most of the time, the problem isn’t the problem the way you
think about the problem is.
- Avoid self-rejection.
Don’t think you deserve that opportunity? Apply for it
anyways. Don’t think your article is good enough? Publish it anyways. Don’t think they’ll reply to
your email? Send it
anyways. Never overthink yourself into self-rejection.
- Silence and time.
The truth is, most problems aren’t solved with more thinking.
They’re solved with less. you’ll find most of the answers you’re looking for in
silence, in time band with a clear mind. If you can’t solve a problem, stop
trying to.
- An important question.
When you start criticizing yourself for past mistakes or
seeing disaster around every corner, ask yourself: is there anything I can do
right now to change the past or to positively influence the future.
If the answer is yes, do you take action? If the answer is no,
be at peace and let it go. You have to take action or let it go, everything else is
self-harm.
- The power of now.
You’re not going to overthink your way to a better future. You’re not going to overthink your way to a better past all you have is Now. and what you do with
Now can make right of your past and make good of your Future.
Make peace with yesterday, let go of tomorrow, and grab hold of
now.
- Fact-check your own thoughts.
Your thoughts will create scenarios in your mind that reflect
your insecurities, fears and worries. So it’s important to always fact-check
your thoughts before accepting them because, in highly emotional situations,
your thoughts will tell you stories that aren’t true.
Fact-check yourself.
Acceptance is peace.
No amount of anxiety will change your future, no amount of regret
will change your past.
Peace is found in
acceptance.
è Accept
imperfection.
è Accept
imperfection.
è Accept the
uncontrollable.
You don’t have to understand, tolerate or even forget
something, but if you want peace, you must accept it.
- Health starts in your mind.
You can go to the gym, eat
healthily, do yoga, drink water and take vitamins, but if you don’t directly
confront the negativity in your thoughts, you will never truly be ‘healthy’
Our health isn’t measured on scales, by the size of our
muscles or by the width of our waist. True health is measured by the quality of
our thoughts and the peacefulness of our minds. Health starts in your mind.
