Run through the Forest.

You can tiptoe through life down the trodden path to ensure nothing out of the ordinary happens. But sometimes you just have to sprint through the forest and hope you won’t run into a tree. - View on overthinking and questioning things to much in life.

Today I’ve been considering te notion of questioning our actions and over-thinking them to the point of it being ridiculous. A lot of the time we can do things without hinking or do the total opposite and overthink things far to much. There is rarely a middle ground.

I have questioned things I do very often, thinking ‘Is this what I want to do? Is it a ‘me’ kind of thing to do? Am I comftable with this situation or is it out of my comfort zone?’ I’ve rarely been out of my comfort zone. When I am, I’m scared, but as a firm believer in doing things that scare you I go on and hope to not run into any trees. I take that sprint into the forest to see whats off the path I’m on and sometimes you find some things that you never expected. This doesn’t mean that I spend a long time wondering if I want to do it and getting confused…you just run.

But everyone is a little confused, our personalities change so often and develop over time - especially when you’re young - that it’s difficult to ever define the things you would ‘normally’ do. It would hinder you, make you less open to new experiences. So you have to stop questioning things sometimes to become open to new things. When I say that I don’t mean bad things, illegal things as they aren’t going to do you any favours but things which will improve your life.

I believe there is a number of people out there who need to question less things and do things they may be unsure of because you can be surprised, I know I have been by some of the things I have done. As it can result in not just letting yourself live your life.
