The truth is that everyone overthinks things from time to time.
Maybe you keep thinking about all the things that could go wrong when you give a presentation next week.
Maybe you’ve wasted countless hours trying to decide what to wear to that job interview and as a result, you didn’t spend any time preparing your answers.
In fact, studies have shown that overthinking elevates your stress levels, reduces your creativity, clouds your judgment and strips you of your power to make decisions.
Fortunately, there are a few ways to handle overthinking.
These don’t happen overnight, some will take time to develop and some can be implemented immediately. But all of them require conscious work from your side.
Learn to manage your stress rather than have it manage you.
