How can I stop overthinking and take action more quickly?

Let's discuss an example.

Always wake up in the moment of overthinking and shouting stop in your mind.

Always realise the purpose of thinking and don't deviate from it.

What's an uncomfortable truth you've learned to accept?

What's the purpose?

if you thought about something in a way, and there was nothing to do; no results, it must not be repeated, no more thinking about it. Reread this.

Any external information is like a detail in a mathematics sum for you. It needs to be used well to identify the correct formula and steps to a solution.It's not written for continuous attention and thinking and dwelling on it.

Ive been pretending to be okay and acting as normal as possible, but Im actually completely heartbroken after a recent breakup. Its painful and really affecting me, to the point where I cant concentrate at work, Ive lost my appetite, I cant sleep, and It feels as if my whole world has been turned upside down. I loved him so much. He said so many cruel things to me and it made me realize he must not have loved me the way I loved him, or he wouldnt have said such horrible things. How do I handle the heartbreak and why cant I accept that he didnt love me and just forget about him?

it's like scratching a painful wound and then regretting it later.

Learn for the future.

Focus on solving and moving to the next problem.

What seemingly minor decision or moment in your past ended up having a massive impact on your entire life trajectory?

When you are thinking about an event where someone mildly insulted you in front of a crowd, let's say they greeted everybody else and not you. I agree, It's sad and painful, it should trigger anger, and that's okay. But what happens next is unbelievable.

Remind us of essons and learnings to deal with life.

Anubhav Jain

How did China invent gunpowder but it was the European nations that went out and “conquered the world using firearms”?

‘No, that's stupid, what's relevant, what best can be done?’

‘What am I doing?’

The purpose of thinking is-

While emptying a house, have you ever seen something in it that blew your mind?

Have a core belief that, nothing is worth ruining even one precious moment of my life, nothing is the end of the world, and that peaceful existence is my ultimate goal like the entire nature.

What's the purpose of the sun?

What is the use of thinking?

My ex moved on so fast. How can I overcome the pain?

You are connecting dots, but without any intelligence, simply creating random dots and joining them creating a complex spiral of thoughts leading to nowhere except chaos.

Decide.

To find a solution, an active solution.

U.S. budget deficit hit $316 billion in May, with annual shortfall up 14% from a year ago - CNBC

Sometimes, you wake up at night post a nightmare with real body reactions like chills, heart beating fast, sweating. But, was the dream real? Your mind only percieved it to be real due to lack of the thought of illusion, and same happens when people become anxious.

Protect us.

The solution was simple, if that person is close and this is the first time, ask them. If they are a repeated offender and not so close, simply ditch them, and disown them. ‘Not my friend anymore. I won't pay attention to him.’ That's about it, you are free to enjoy peace of mind and life.

Why can't I lose weight?

Wake yourself up.

‘C'mon, get going, nothing happened.’

Relive relevant moments.

Why are white men so obsessed with Asian women? I'm friends with people from all different backgrounds but I never see my other non-white male friends obsess over or talk about Asian women like I've seen the white ones do.

Why don't you simply realise that you are merely thinking and not be one with your thoughts and start living them?

To make you insane and run behind millions of useless thoughts forming chains and spirals?

The worst people do is to repeat the same thought again and again. It's like banging our head repeatedly on a wall in anger.

Do married men like sucking dick?

‘It's not a life or death threat, it's over, it's small.’

To burn every bit of life on this planet Earth? Or, to generate, nourish and sustain life and to give light. What if it suddenly goes out of control and rushes towards us?

Can you roll your eyes to your foolish thoughts?

When a dog smells another dog’s poo or wee, do they then remember that scent for when they smell it again, or even further know which dog they are smelling if they know the dog?

The moment you deviate. Correct it.

Why don't you focus on the ‘purpose of thinking’ more than merely thinking, that is, to find a solution or a path to a solution?

You start thinking about what each one present there would be thinking, about similar events that happened throughout life, you try to explore that person's reasons and thoughts behind that action and zero in on the worst possible reason, while that fool simply forgot that they didn't greet you already. You question your esteem and identity, ‘he did that because I earn less, I am not worthy of respect. When my day comes, he will get it back with interest.’

Overthinking gives you instant peace, you know why Because it stabilises and focuses your mind, it clears any confusion caused by positive options. It makes you forget your life and hop between thoughts.

Read patiently to clear your mind of baseless overthinking.
