We have all been there. There is something we want to do. We think about all the possible ways to do it and think some more about all the hows. We may even talk about the fact that we are going to do it and how we are going to do it and at some point realize we have never done it.
Overthinking can leave you feeling like you are incapable and you stop trusting yourself. Your feeling of mistrust can lead to never really feeling fulfilled and capable.
It causes you to feel constant dissatisfaction and uncertainty.

How to stop overthinking

I had a client who was then a multi-millionaire and she used to say to me that the reason why she was so successful was because of her ability to make big decisions faster than anyone.
This is not to say, go ahead and make thoughtless decisions. But it is about learning how to make decisions and making them so often that you give yourself a chance to learn and grow and become better.
The problem with overthinkers is that they never make decisions, they never take action and they never learn. They are stuck.
To not be stuck and to stop this frustrating cycle, simply practice taking action on things and gain your trust that you are going to be okay.
You are not just going to be okay, however, if you take this chance on yourself to stretch beyond your fears.
The world will get to have a greater version of you when you do!
