Overthinking is like a rocking chair—it gives you something to do but gets you nowhere. Perhaps it’s time to step off and start moving.

Mindset Minute: From Overthinking to Action

We’ve all been there: stuck in a loop of “What if?” and “Maybe I should…”

It feels productive, but it’s just mental quicksand. Overthinking kills clarity, wastes energy, and keeps you from taking the very actions that could move you forward.

But here’s the secret: action beats overthinking every single time.

Here’s how to break free:

1. Shrink the Step: Big decisions feel overwhelming. Break them into the tiniest action possible. Instead of “start a project,” try “write the first sentence.”
   ​
2. Set a Timer: Give yourself 10 minutes to brainstorm or worry. When the timer dings, it’s go-time. No excuses.
   ​
3. Ask This Question: “What’s the worst that could happen?” Nine times out of ten, the answer isn’t as bad as you imagine. It’s permission to move forward.

Overthinking is just fear in disguise. Taking even the smallest action helps you break the cycle and build momentum.

Ready to take action?

Pick one thing you’ve been overthinking today and take one tiny action—right now. Momentum starts here.

Cheers,​
Warren
