"A miracle is an event so unlikely as to be nearly impossible. It's probably worth reminding you right now that the probability of your existence is estimated to be 1 in 400 trillion."
Today's Frequently Asked Friday (FAF), "How can I stop overthinking?" is the natural follow-up to Monday's Mind-Bullet, Overthinking.
When it comes to our goals and ambitions, chances are good that overthinking is keeping us from even getting out of the gate!
Overthinking is typically just a disguise for a lack of confidence. The key to gaining confidence is to take action! Small steps toward your goal—tracking your habits, for example—following P.A.R.R. is a sure way to gain confidence.
We can also stop overthinking by asking questions and challenging our perspective. One of the best ways to reduce overthinking is to slow down, stop, and manage our thoughts better. One of the very best ways to do this is to begin a meditation practice.
Listen in for more on why overthinking need not be a hurdle you create for yourself and learn more techniques to diminish its negative presence in your life.
