Overthinking is like sitting in a parked car, revving the engine, pretending you’re on your way somewhere. Sounds loud, feels busy, but you’re not moving an inch. That’s the trap—thinking becomes the illusion of progress.
You plan. You analyze. You prepare. Then you second-guess. Then you tweak. Then you freeze. And before you know it, the window of action shuts. The idea that once sparked excitement? Smothered under a hundred what-ifs.
Now, this doesn’t mean thinking is bad. It’s just that at some point, you’ve got to stop measuring the pool and jump in. Otherwise, you’ll still be standing on the edge while someone else is already swimming laps.
Action beats perfection every time. You don’t need the perfect strategy, just the next step. Progress isn’t found in your thoughts—it’s in your hands, your feet, your movement.
So, whatever it is you’re circling in your mind? Cut the loop. Start small. Make a move. And let momentum do what overthinking never will: get it done.
Your Challenge
Pick one thing you’ve been overthinking—could be a task, decision, project, or message you’ve been sitting on.
1. Set a timer for 60 minutes
2. No more researching, no more perfecting—just do it
3. At the end of the hour, either it’s done, or you’ve made real progress you can’t ignore
No breaks. No excuses. Just you, the clock, and the first move.
Let action outpace hesitation today. (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12)
