Maybe you have the perception that overthinking is a good thing. Obviously, it is important to think, right? However, looking at this from a different perspective, you will realize that overthinking can be detrimental. In fact, it can cause a lot of problems in your life. When you overthink, it means that you are focusing too much on something without actually doing anything about it. If you overthink a problem, you exaggerate it and it becomes worse than it seems. The problem will seem more serious and chances are you will be afraid to find ideal solutions. Overthinking not only affects you when you are thinking about negative things, but it is also not good to overthink about positive things. It can open up the possibility to ruin the good things that you were thinking about, form unrealistic expectations and lead to anxiety.

Thinking too much without taking any action is termed overthinking. This means that you spend most of your time reflecting on thoughts repeatedly. The effect of overthinking is that it prevents you from making informed decisions. Moreover, it drains positive energy from you since you will start to believe that your problems are beyond solving. The anxiety that builds up also blinds you from perceiving things the way they should. As a result, your mind puts you in a loop where you only think repeatedly without doing anything.

This habit prevents people from reaching their potential in life. Since there is little that you can do about certain things in your life, you will feel as though your life is at a stand-still. You will continue to reflect on your past. Maybe something bad had happened and it has affected your life to this day. Thinking too much holds you captive in your own imagination.

What you need to realize is that overthinking will not help you solve your problems. The worst case is that it will affect how you perceive life. Your life will be full of negativity.

Have you ever wondered why it is easier for the mind to focus on the negative and less on the positive? Undeniably, the way in which the mind works leaves us with many questions. Usually, it is quite easy for it to drift and focus on all the negative things that have happened in our lives. Why do you think this is the case? The mind is programmed in a way that makes it challenging for us to automatically focus on the positive. It is for this reason that most people will find it daunting to deal with depression. This can be explained by the negative bias aspect of the brain.

This chapter looks into how the brain works. It aims to help you understand why the brain is hardwired to think negatively and how you can overcome it. Moreover, well take an in-depth look as to why the mind is like a time machine that brings you to the future or the past.

As human beings, it is very easy for us to fall prey to cogitating mostly on the negative. Take for example when people watch the news. Studies show that people find it easy to remember all the bad things that were discussed in the news. When asked about the good things that were talked about, it seemed more difficult for the mind to recall. Envision a scenario where your supervisor conducts a performance evaluation on how you work. Your supervisor finds that you performed well and ends up praising you. However, the supervisor doesnt forget to remind you of something that you need to improve on. Suddenly, all the positive things that the supervisor mentioned evaporate and your mind centers on the last negative comment. Does this sound familiar?
