Overthinking

We too have problems that will not be solved by overthinking.

~ Sam Harris

When faced with a dilemma, I often think myself into a hole from which I cannot climb out of. Eventually, I end up just relying on feelings to determine my actions. Or my overthinking paralysis will lead to me not taking any action at all.

Where is the line between using our minds to solve problems and depending on them too much? How we do we discern which issues require thought and which just need detached observation, space, and time to work themselves out?

What have you been overthinking lately? Maybe it’s time to just go outside for a walk. Things always work themselves out one way or another.
