Overthinking is like rocking in a chair—you’re moving but going nowhere. Here’s how to stop the cycle:

1. Label your thoughts – “I’m thinking, not solving.”

2. Set a time limit – give yourself 5 minutes to worry, then move on.

3. Redirect your focus – shift to a small action like walking or writing.

You can’t overthink and act at the same time. Small moves break mental loops.
