They feel safe when I'm there. I'm a person who gives people a lot of information. And I know that I'm beneficial to many lives, not just at work, but outside of work. But when I start to think about things, sometimes I overthink and I begin to think that people don't not that people don't value me, but I begin to think sometimes maybe I don't meet those standards that people have. Maybe I'm not good enough

Hello, Kita. I guess that's how you pronounce your name. And if not, I apologize. Thank you for inviting me to this conversation about overthinking. That is a human thing. It's not strange. You are not strange. Be overthinking, over stuff, especially if you have been through a lot in your life. The way you described, many people can be related to you, and I am one of those people. And we have this moment of doubt, of overthinking

And if you don't know who you are, then you got to sit down and do the work of knowing who you are. And if you know who you are, you'll know those thinkings and those thought patterns and the overanalysis is not yours. It's influenced by energetics of other people around you or maybe your surrounding. So the number one thing is to know and cleanse your thoughts every day, every moment

Hi, Kitha. Thank you for inviting me to this well. So, yeah, I'm an overthinker too. I have a tendency to overthink things. And I'm going to be honest. Sometimes my overthinking is not a problem. Sometimes my overthinking is good for me because sometimes when I overthink things really am I'm overthinking it because I'm forcing myself I'm requiring myself to be honest and say what really is going on, right? And so I'm thinking about a situation

And when we know that we are pleasant to be around or we know that we are good people, that's all that should matter. And experiences come to help us grow. Thank you so much for responding. I'm glad that you said that you experience certain things too, because experience is what makes us who we are. So I really hope that you have a wonderful rest of your day. And again, thanks for responding. Bye

Because if I know who I am, then I know that that is not true. So those are different things from surroundings and I do very well most of the time, but sometimes it's just think, think. But yeah, thank you so much and I'm going to think about that next time I'm overthinking. Is it me or is it somebody else? Bye

So yeah, overthinking, like you said, sometimes is not a bad thing. I know I have friends and they'll call me, they're like, what you think about this? What you think about that? Because they know I'm about to be like here, I don't just do something and not have a game plan or I don't just do something, not think it through. And sometimes my friends do. So they know that I'm not going to do that
