Are You An Overthinker?

I just don't get it...

I looked at some of the newest websites created (clicked on the training feedback page) and I can't seem to figure out what I am making things so difficult. Overthinking, for sure.

But it's got to be more than that...doesn't it? I mean, I know overthinking is one thing, but I cannot imagine that overthinking is the ONLY reason why I can't seem to create a simple website.

I start to write an article, yet, somehow the info comes screaming in at a breakneck speed, and I can only type so fast...Ok, maybe overthinking gets me to the end result instead of through the process. And writing this down here, makes it some like such a simple concept, and a total 'V-8' moment when you looked (I look) at the face value.

And that only makes it worse...compounds things about how I feel about where i'm heading with creating content for my websites...

There are some pluses, I have continued on into the training, and now have an adsense account...except that I clicked on the wrong email, and now I have to wait, again, for them to accept my website...

I am having trouble with understanding what I need to do to set up the Aweber. No, I have the account set up, I mean setting up the email. I have used my other emails to create a list (gotta start somewhere, right?).

I was able to download Dragon Speak audio - to text and upload it onto a USB and then download that to my computer, successfully, I might add...grin.

Yet, when I tried to copy a music CD, I forgot to download it first before loading USB thumb/flash drive...DOH!

Any how is your day!!...

I know I am not the only one to ever feel this way, and I'm sure there is a plethora of solutions and suggestions, this is just where I'm at, currently.

They Get Towed...toad.

Rudy, I think we are all guilty of this at times. What if ... How should I ... is this better.. and so on.
Then I read a blog last week and the main message was not to worry about posts being super perfect, just get them out there for all to see. Of course, in six months you will be doing it better, but that's in the future and you need to post things today.
Hope this helps.

Thanks, Bux.

And yeah, I know what to do, I have the tools...grin. Just sometimes, I need to stop comparing and look at my own work...which is simply marvelous...

Thanks, man, appreciate your words.

Rudy

I'm happy to read that you have still got your sense of humour, Rudy. Towed-toad. I think we can all be overthinkers at times. Suppose it depends on the mood. Keep moving forward. Thank you for sharing.

Hi Rudy. Thanks for sharing. You are not alone. I think you're already tackling the challenge beautifully. When I can't seem to move in one area, I simply do another task. As long as it is moving me forward in my journey. I usually find that when I have been successful in one area, (downloading Dragon Speak Audio, in your case.), motivation for the other task comes back.

Thanks...

And that is true, I have often shifted gears, or done something else to change the pace. The problem is I keep circling the same issues....like writing content.

I start with a topic, then overwhelm myself with all of the (and I mean ALL...lol) points I could bring into the article.

What happens next is that I have a ton of content for about 5 articles, yet none get finished....Very frustrating.

Hi Rudy,
I totally understand. At times I feel like I am just flailing around here aimlessly.
I have no business plan, no plan for anything, to be honest, I'm just plodding through the training at an alarmingly slow rate.
I would love to have someone guiding (and pushing) me because I lack any sort of business acumen.
Anyway, sorry I couldn't offer something more positive but hang in there dude, I'm sure it will all fall into place.
All the best,
Rab

Thanks, Rab...appreciate you thoughts on the matter.

I feel the same way, being guided is very helpful, with the occasional push. I never learned how to discipline myself, so I find it difficult to get motivated.

Hi Rudy, sometimes i am echoing your actions and words and overthink everything, as I am unsure if what I'm is to the best of what everyone else is doing. That's normal to an extent
What I do next is crucial to me going forward. I take a step back and go back to my checklist, and objectives for whatever part of the training that I'm at, and re - route my action that will put me back where I'm supposed to me
Everyone's aims and objectives regarding their outlay of their websites will be different. And so will the vision that you have set for yourself. I hope this helps.
