In my many conversations with artists, creatives and founders the number one discomfort and point of procrastination I encounter is overthinking. I’m told it feels like being stuck in a loop. Let’s change our perspective so we can act. Action on any choice will get you something.
I know it might be uncomfortable to hear, but the truth is overthinking is a guaranteed way to get nothing. That any decision you make is better because at least it will get you something. As an individual you are always a part of the decisions you make. What that means is you’re starting with something, even if that something is only one from your presence.
By making a choice you activate you. In doing this there will be a result. Ceasing to overthink and making a choice always gets you something. It doesn’t have to be the final thing, the ultimate thing, but it’s a start. That infinite loop of overthinking will guarantee nothing happens. Choosing and acting at least gives you the possibility of something happening.
Think of it like this -
Overthinking is a loop/nothing that equals zero(0).
0 x anything = 0
You choosing and acting equals one(1).
1 x anything = anything
The important thought to remember is 1 will always be greater than 0.
It’s as simple as this - When we as one choose and act, then and only then does anything become possible.
In my work as soul personal trainer I invite everyone to choose themselves and stand in the power of themself as one. Reject the fear, discomfort, and concerns that lead to overthinking and embrace the possibility that comes from choosing. What are you willing to choose and make possible?
