Is over thinking really a problem?


We are usually addicted to over thinking. In today’s stressful professional fronts and further the actual hours we spend at our home being very hectic and loaded with work and various responsibilities, it is not skeptical to be an over thinker.  Now owing to such a life, the question arises, is it wrong if go into a state of over thinking? Let’s find out as to how it should be dealt with.


When we over think about a certain issue, we factually think about particular words or experience which are leading us towards the issue itself. We are well aware of the fact that every word is associated with a picture/ experience in our brain. Those experiences create an emotion and the emotion ultimately generates chemical reactions with the help of our brain.  If the experiences are positive, it leads to a positive state of mind and the brain secrets dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin and endorphins, which are happy hormones. If those experiences are bitter, they lead to a negative state of mind and the brain secrets less of the happy hormones which generally leads to sad state of mind.


The happy hormones if secreted in ample quantity, affects positively our body and mind and good health attracts better quality of life. Whereas, if these hormones are secreted in less quantity, our mind goes into sad zone which ultimately effects negatively our body and hence, our health deteriorates.


Need is not to terminate over thinking but deviate the way we over think to yield happiness instead of deepening the stress.


Suppose we are over thinking on certain issue happened in our home, be that a verbal altercation with your spouse. If you just jump over the conclusion as to who was right or wrong, and it is an admitted that we look ourselves not a culprit but as a victim, the whole world surrounded by that person will appear to you as your enemy. On the contrary, if we analyse the things with a peaceful mind for reaching the conclusion, we will find the correct loophole and get to know about the areas which need improvement. The so called loopholes, if corrected by the ways you poured your over thinking upon, can lead to the happy state of affairs. So, ultimately, it is the same over thinking, which led us to happiness, by that over thinking, we could be a self help to ourselves, the best help to ourselves.


Usually, we are accustomed to think negatively. It's not easy to change this habit but it is not impossible too. Even if you are overthinking, think positive.



Conclusion


Over thinking is not an issue, the issue is to divert it to a positive direction. The trick behind is as simple as written over here, and that is, to learn to shift our thoughts, to flip them to our own benefit.

So folks, apply this formula in the hour of need and let us know, if it was really helpful and the tricks I exemplified above, really came to your rescue or not.
