Overthink

"And the weird thing is: that voice comes up when I've just started thinking about something and I'm really in no danger of overthinking anything at all. It's a bit grandiose that voice. "Things should come naturally dude, if it's not coming naturally it's not right." As if the world works like that. And it's particularly crappy in relationships. Something goes wrong and before you really talk it through you start thinking "this should be coming naturally" and then you wanna bail. Or maybe when your creative life hits a little bit of resistance you decide it's time to change jobs. It is a recipe for a miserable life - and yes, I would know this. [...] Personally, I think it's the same for love and creativity: it is possible to overthink, but first you have to think, and try, and talk, and do, and after that, if you're still at an impass, maybe then you let go."
