There are a lot of things in life that people overthink about. They might be thinking about a decision they need to make, a conversation they need to have, or something else. It can feel like there is never going to be an end to the thoughts in your head. It’s important for over-thinkers to know that it’s okay and normal for them to think this way. It’s also important for them to know that there are ways they can deal with their thoughts and live a more balanced life.

The problem is rarely the problem

99% of the harm is caused in your head, by you and your thoughts.  1% of the harm is caused by reality, what actually happens and the outcome.  The problem is rarely the problem so don’t over think about it.  The first step to solving any problem is understanding the issue. This can be difficult when you are not sure what the problem is. It’s important to take a step back and analyze the situation before jumping into the solution. 

Avoid self-rejection

We all want to be accepted and loved, but we often reject ourselves before anyone else has a chance to do it. We need to stop self-rejecting and start loving ourselves.  There are many ways that we can avoid self-rejection:

- Stop comparing yourself to others – we all have our own strengths and weaknesses.  - Be confident in your own abilities. - Embrace your uniqueness. - Give yourself permission to make mistakes - Spend time with yourself. 

Silence and Time

You will find most of the answers you are looking for in silence, in timeband with clear mind. When it seems like you can’t solve a problem, stop trying to solve it- time will eventually solve the problem. Whenever you’re faced with a problem you can’t seem to solve, it can be disheartening. But sometimes the best thing you can do is just wait. Many problems have solutions that are so simple, they’re right in front of you. 

The power of now

The past is in the past. The future is not here yet. So all you have is present (now) only.  What you do with now can make right of your past and make good of your future. If you’re like most people, you’re rushing through your life as fast as possible. You’re trying to cram as much into your day as possible because you don’t know how long it will be until tomorrow. You might not realize that the way that you spend your time now can actually make right of the mistakes of your past and make good for the time in the future. 

Fact check your own thought

Your thoughts will create scenarios in your mind that reflect your insecurities, fears and worries.  Our minds are very powerful. They can create scenarios in our minds that reflect our insecurities, fears and worries. This is because they are often not good at distinguishing between what is real and what is not. So it’s important to always fact check your own thoughts.

Acceptance is peace

In today’s world, we have a lot of things that can cause stress. There are many things that we have to go through, from the trials of life to the stresses of work.  We should always strive for acceptance in order to live a happy and healthy life.  Peace is found in acceptance:

- Accept imperfection. - Accept uncertainty. - Accept the uncontrollable. - Accept who you are.
