We overthink because we want to be prepared for every scenario available so we don’t make fools out of ourselves.

If we examine this dynamic closely, we will understand that the core problem is a lack of self-love. Because when we attain the necessary amount of self-love, we become free from those validational chains making us slaves of pleasing others on behalf of ourselves. The more you care about accepting yourself as the flawed, unique, and magical person you are, the less time you waste on impressing others. Thus, you start living easier in the now, surrender to the outcomes, and overthink much less than before.

That’s freedom!
