In his book Soundtracks: The Solutiuon to Overthinking, Jon Acuff writes, ‘Overthinking is when what you think gets in the way of what you want.’

If you know what you want, then take action to make it happen . Do not stuck yourself. Do not stuck your dreams. And do not stuck your future. And that is exactly what you are doing to yourself, to your future, to the people around you, when you overthink ‘every little decision.’

No matter what you are doing, you are not going to be perfect. The best way to move forward, to bring out your creative self, is to stop overthinking everything.

If you want to get things done, use what you have right now to start your journey. Yes, life is a journey. If you do not start, you will never arrive.

Do not waste your thoughts. Do not waste your time. Instead of overthinking everything, why not focus on what you can do with what you have? According to Jon Acuff, You can turn overthinking into action.’ Remember, to get anything done in your life, you must take action. And you must stop overthinking every little thing. You will get better as you go.

Because if you waste your time too much, if you do not take action, you are not going anywhere. Is that what you want for yourself?

You Are An Artist. Here Is Why

You are an artist. You are a creator. As long as you are living your life on your own terms, you are an artist.

Here is why you are an artist. According to Ozan Varol, ‘The new strategy you design at work is art.

The way you raise your children is art. The way you decorate your home is art. The way you talk, the way you smile, the way you live your life- it’s all art.’ Then we are all artists. And that is why we are different.

To create a better world for yourself, you must bring out the artist within you. Why is that? Because no one can create your life for you. No one can paint your canvas for you. And no one can tell the world who you truly are, your true self. So if you want people to know you, you must paint your own canvas.
