Stop Thinking: Why Taking Small Steps Is More Important Than Overthinking
The importance of taking action toward your goals cannot be overstated. However, many people get stuck in the planning and overthinking phase, hindering their progress. In Episode 757 of the Happy Brain Podcast, host Gregg Clunis emphasizes the importance of stopping excessive thinking and taking small steps toward your end goal.
What Does “Stop Thinking” Mean?
In Episode 757, Clunis emphasizes that “stop thinking” does not translate to dropping everything and immediately taking drastic action toward your goals. Instead, it means setting a foundation down first and starting the process. Taking huge and sudden risks that can completely shift your life is not advised. Recognize where you are in the process and be smart about your actions.
Why Take Small Steps?
It’s essential to pick the next immediate thing you can work on and start doing it. Foundational work sets you up for long-term success. By taking small steps, you learn and figure out the changes that will benefit you in the long term. There is no need to rush and jump off the cliff; instead, learn how to build your parachute.
