When I think about the future it's mostly disaster planning. Plan for the worst, so anything else is a win. It's restrictive

You’re not preparing for life—you’re rehearsing reasons not to live it.

Thanks, I'm trying to protect myself from getting hurt again, worse, more? But it's limiting me

Trying for oneself is a sign of strength already🤗

That's sounds like a overflow of negative personality, which i used to be like that, it takes time to be aware of this and take more time to be a little bit more neutral, you could consider whenever you plan to make more than one option, arranged from negative to neutral, sometimes expecting good things and preparing for them can help a lot to achieve better results.

It's more like fear. I've been through a lot of emotional pain, and this is how I try to protect myself.

It's not the best way to deal, I get that.

I'm taking small steps to changing this, but it takes time

As I said a sign of true strength😁

You’re confusing thinking more with thinking better, and it’s costing you action.😎

Writting a todo list of plans what todo before you go to bed can help a lot to cut the cycle, specially if you overwork you would find it waste of time to overthink, so you start to reduce it in many ways, but you will get overwork problem ... sooo yes .... balance is the right thing that we usually ignore the most.

@AnnaGLAZ

ABCDE prioritization is a task strategy... it’s a way to take control of ur time n focus on what truly matters. It'll help u as they did to me 😊  


Procrastination is human; sometimes it simply means you’re tired n need rest. That’s okay..!!! But staying stuck there isn’t. You can choose the temporary discomfort of doing the work, or the lasting regret of avoiding it.

One builds strength, the other builds excuses.

You’re mentally inflating tasks until they feel unbearable, then using that overwhelm as permission to avoid them.👻

Of course you could afford to be "practical" and "blunt" because you live privileged life.

@thoughtfulNectarine910 open reddit, go to r/aita, r/relationshipadvice. Read around. You will quickly realise you are actually not doing as bad as you think 😂 that's how I do it. Feeling behind and unsatisfied with my life? I open Reddit and see stuff, and go actually, my life sucks but at least I'm not in this situation. It usually takes 2-3 stories to make you appreciate what you got
