How to stop overthinking?

-
Overthinking, most of the websites and people would say that overthinking is a bad thing. The definition for the word overthinking is to think about (something) too much or for too long.



If we look at scientists they overthink all the time. That is the reason they are able to discover new theories or things. Most of the people tend to think that overthinking is a bad thing or they tend to think of it as overthinking is one of the reasons behind their sadness. But the thing is thinking about the wrong thing is bad. Right thinking is not bad.
Now the question is what is wrong thinking and what is right thinking. Because it is quiet possible that what you think is right someone else might think that it is wrong. So, right thinking is clear thinking. Having clear thoughts about something. Wrong thinking is having tangled thoughts about things. 



In other words, thinking based on belief is wrong thinking and thinking based on reality is right thinking. Because beliefs are mostly based on illusion. In rare cases beliefs are the same as reality. And where there is reality there is no place for belief. For example you don't have to believe that you are breathing because it is reality that you are breathing. In reality there is no place for doubts but in beliefs anyone can question the existence of your belief. 

Belief is something that someone told us or we read it in some ancient book or things like that. But if we think about it 99% of the things in our lives are all based on beliefs. That is also fine. Because as humans we put ourselves in illusions to escape pain. Which is fine too. It is also needed to lead a happy life. 



But sometimes what happens is when we believe something and someone else, believes something else, We start fighting about whose belief is right. That makes both the persons mind drown with doubts and conflicts.

So, if we tend to think about things on the basis of reality then our thoughts become straight and clear. If we look at things and understand them on the basis of reality. So there are less conflicts in our mind. The chances of us getting confused gets very low. Which ultimately means wrong overthinking will get reduced.
Another solution is being positive, that is the ultimate solution. Just being happy and smiling in every situation. 



I love you all,
Be happy,
Be positive,
Keep smiling,
See you guys in my next blog...

Welcome to my new series called as "Love Nest". Here we will try to understand what love actually is. This is the first part of the series. I hope you do enjoy reading it and redefine the meaning of love. Love the most wonderful feeling in this world. Love which is endless. For which people are ready to sacrifice their lives. We have read about some of the most wonderful love stories in world. Love a feeling which makes us feel like we are the luckiest people in the world. It makes us feel like we are on the 7th sky. Sometimes we are desperate for love and when someone breaks our heart we tend to hate love and that person.  We generally tend to confuse love with relationship. We often think that if we are in relationship with someone it is love, sometimes even if we do realize that there is no love between us we force ourselves to love the other person. Which creates even a bigger separation between the two of us. For example it happens most of the times, that sometimes ...

Regrets are one of the biggest reasons behind the sadness in our daily life. Sometimes they just never seem to go away. Sometimes we feel so helpless, just thinking about the wrong decisions we took. But every situation has a positive and a negative side like a coin. Sometimes in life we take some decisions which upsets us or the people around us. Which we generally call it as a mistake. It becomes difficult for us to forget and we suffer for a long time by just thinking about it and thinking that we could have changed it and life would have been a bit better. Most of the time what happens is, we prepare for a situation and think that we would react to it in a certain way but when we are in that situation we are not able to control our actions. Therefore we end up acting in a completely different way. First thing we need to understand is that we need to be able to differentiate between things that we did to someone or someone did to us intentionally and things that happened unintent...

Importance of trust in relationships

Welcome to the third part of my series "love nest". I hope you do enjoy reading it and redefine the meaning of love. Trust is one of the major reasons for conflicts between two people, which can sometimes lead to separation. It is one of the most important emotions of our life. Keeping someone's trust or making someone realize that trusting us was the right decision, is one of the essential qualities that one should have in them. May be we are the leader of a company or a small retailer, we should never double cross the people who were there for us. Hypocrisy is growing everyday. People are becoming more double faced everyday. When we trust people and they break our trust it makes us sad and we end up not trusting the genuine people in future. If our thinking is limited and we just want to have short term success and we are ready to break the trust of the people who trust us blindly and are ready to do whatever we tell them to do, then we might be able to att...
