You Think Too Much

Sometimes people accuse me of thinking too much.

I probably do.

However, I enjoy thinking, so, for me, it’s not a chore.

It’s more like play, which is why I love what I do.

The other benefit is that by thinking before I act, I make pretty good decisions.

I had a friend who used to say WWJD meant What Would Jen Do because she considered my problem solving skills and common sense so good.

The point is that being a good problem solver requires practice.

You have to actively practice thinking well to be able to think well under pressure.

Life is a lot like chess.

If you can think ahead to potential consequences, you can avoid getting yourself into trouble.

And it really is fun when you get the hang of it.
