What part of this actually needs thought, and what part is mental looping? How does your body feel when you stop analyzing and just sit with the truth? What would you do if you trusted your first instinct? When has this led you astray? When has it been the right move? Where are you trying to think your way into certainty instead of allowing it? What information would actually change your next step, and what wouldn’t? How has overthinking protected you in the past, and how is it holding you back now?
