What's the purpose?
The worst people do is to repeat the same thought again and again. It's like banging our head repeatedly on a wall in anger.
Overthinking gives you instant peace, you know why Because it stabilises and focuses your mind, it clears any confusion caused by positive options. It makes you forget your life and hop between thoughts.
Anubhav Jain
Focus on solving and moving to the next problem.
Have a core belief that, nothing is worth ruining even one precious moment of my life, nothing is the end of the world, and that peaceful existence is my ultimate goal like the entire nature.
What do you think is the most powerful line in the song "Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien" by Édith Piaf?
You start thinking about what each one present there would be thinking, about similar events that happened throughout life, you try to explore that person's reasons and thoughts behind that action and zero in on the worst possible reason, while that fool simply forgot that they didn't greet you already. You question your esteem and identity, ‘he did that because I earn less, I am not worthy of respect. When my day comes, he will get it back with interest.’
Protect us.
if you thought about something in a way, and there was nothing to do; no results, it must not be repeated, no more thinking about it. Reread this.
Do handsome guys intimidate women or people in general?
‘No, that's stupid, what's relevant, what best can be done?’
Can you roll your eyes to your foolish thoughts?
To make you insane and run behind millions of useless thoughts forming chains and spirals?
What’s the saddest thing you’ve seen at your job?
it's like scratching a painful wound and then regretting it later.
To burn every bit of life on this planet Earth? Or, to generate, nourish and sustain life and to give light. What if it suddenly goes out of control and rushes towards us?
‘It's not a life or death threat, it's over, it's small.’
Let's discuss an example.
Why don't you focus on the ‘purpose of thinking’ more than merely thinking, that is, to find a solution or a path to a solution?
What's the purpose of the sun?
Wake yourself up.
Remind us of essons and learnings to deal with life.
Sometimes, you wake up at night post a nightmare with real body reactions like chills, heart beating fast, sweating. But, was the dream real? Your mind only percieved it to be real due to lack of the thought of illusion, and same happens when people become anxious.
You are connecting dots, but without any intelligence, simply creating random dots and joining them creating a complex spiral of thoughts leading to nowhere except chaos.
Why don't you simply realise that you are merely thinking and not be one with your thoughts and start living them?
‘C'mon, get going, nothing happened.’
Do you know a good lawyer joke?
The purpose of thinking is-
Decide.
The moment you deviate. Correct it.
The solution was simple, if that person is close and this is the first time, ask them. If they are a repeated offender and not so close, simply ditch them, and disown them. ‘Not my friend anymore. I won't pay attention to him.’ That's about it, you are free to enjoy peace of mind and life.
Relive relevant moments.
Learn for the future.

To find a solution, an active solution.
Always wake up in the moment of overthinking and shouting stop in your mind.
Always realise the purpose of thinking and don't deviate from it.
When you are thinking about an event where someone mildly insulted you in front of a crowd, let's say they greeted everybody else and not you. I agree, It's sad and painful, it should trigger anger, and that's okay. But what happens next is unbelievable.
Read patiently to clear your mind of baseless overthinking.
‘What am I doing?’
Even Captain James T. Kirk was trapped in a woman's body. Don't you think he'd support trans people?
Any external information is like a detail in a mathematics sum for you. It needs to be used well to identify the correct formula and steps to a solution.It's not written for continuous attention and thinking and dwelling on it.
