My not-so-good habit

Just looking at the time interval of the last post I had, one can conclude that I've been extremely busy these past few weeks. I guess I was but not exactly, I just got out of track. I realized that thinking is a very wasteful habit.

"Thinking", it's a very smart habit. Like everyone say, "Think before doing something. Think of a plan. Think of the consequences. Think." 

However, too much thinking isn't good which can be synonymous to worrying. I read of a phrase about worrying- that it is a down payment of a problem you may never have. 

So what's the point?

I've been losing my precious time these past few weeks because of WORRYING. I've been overly conscious of the things I do and whether I'm doing them right. I'm worried of what other people are thinking and what they are labeling me. I'm stressed over the things I still don't know but I should have. I'm worried about my future and when will I take the next step to make something big. These small things keeps freaking me out and I'm trying to block the negative thoughts but I guess I can't stop the leakage. 

Somewhere behind my mind is the thought that I can go through it if I just keep moving forward. Besides I know it's normal to feel this way occasionally. Although I observed that this "over thinking" is becoming a sick habit of mine. 

I know I can't stop myself from thinking. It's inevitable. But I wanted to manage it and eliminate the excess. My solution? I want to regain my focus. Just like how I did it in high school where I miraculously ended up on top. To concentrate on things that matters most and leave the extra baggage behind. Now, the big question is how will I do it?

One answer I have right now is JUST DO IT. 

(Suddenly I feel great!)
