Not sure exactly what you're getting at here, but I tend to overanalyze many things (especially things like purchases and options, researching endlessly). I read a great article in the NYTimes about FOBO, Fear of Better Options, that really resonated.<p>I can't find the original link right now, but here's a Medium piece that is nearly the same content: <a href="https://medium.com/swlh/fobo-fear-of-better-options-is-the-reason-you-cant-make-a-decision-294fb91c18f4" rel="nofollow">https://medium.com/swlh/fobo-fear-of-better-options-is-the-r...</a>
At some point I came to the realization that most things just aren't very important. The outcomes of events really don't have as much impact as you think they do.<p>I try to keep my mind focused on immediate tasks and work through them in logcial steps. I try not to second guess myself once i've decided something unless it becomes apparent it was a poor decision, otherwise I try and roll with things and work out the best for whatever happens.<p>Because in the end, we only have so much control over things and i've wasted a lot of time overthinking and worrying about things that happened or might happen that I can't change or have no control over. I eventually realized it was pointless and making me miserable. I find by focusing on the things you can affect and, I don't really know how to word this, listen to your gut feeling or instinct about things.<p>Oh and mushrooms, magic mushrooms help with that.
