Reflecting vs. Overthinking
Reflection is a deliberate act of self-evolution, allowing us to deepen self-awareness and grow with compassion. It’s a moment to assess outcomes and discern the best course of action, seeking lessons and a broader perspective to drive future improvements.
On the other hand, overthinking descends into a negative spiral of imagined worst-case scenarios driven by fear, a false sense of control, and a lack of empathy; towards others and ourselves. It drains our energy, harms our physical and mental well-being, and impedes progress in life.
