are u an analytical thinker?

I used to overthink situations when I was younger and wasn't as confident about my decisions or my stand on certain matters. I still try to think things through before acting or voicing my opinion but sometimes things just happen spontaneously.

hi there.. you know what, my friends said that i overthink and i over prepare... LOL... how funny... because it is the way i am.. i overanalyze and my mind is really busy all the time. i just can't decide almost 95% by not thinking about the advantages and disadvantages of a situation or a decision that i need to make. moreover, i believe in making atleast a 50-50 viable return on whatever thing that i am deciding upon. but you know, i have this 5% in me where i can make impulsive decisions but not so dangerous decisions like sky diving or bungee jumping.... ahahhaha... like impulsive buying of clothes and other things.. .hahahahahah.. .guess there's a little impetous person in me... but it doesnt come out often. but you know beign easy going and happy go lucky at times can work too.. i am working to strike a balance between the two... hehehehe...

yes, i also want to think a lot for something, it is not right for my develop ,and that will destroy your health,because that will waste you a lot of energy. when somebody say some words then i will think a lot of times ,what does his word mean? and think a lot of times for the some person's sigh or act. my msn is fwanga@hotmail.com ,you can add it.

I am not sure how to answer. I do think things through when I am worried about the outcome and/or consequences of my actions. I will; weigh the pros and cons; go through possible outcomes and consequences; consider all the options (or at least as many as I can think of). BUT honestly...most-of-the-time I tend to "feel" my way through life. If it doesn't "feel" wrong or questionable - I don't need to "think" too much about it. I typically can trust my instincts and emotions. Sometimes...you just have to jump in and try to swim...however, it is NICE to have time to warm up first and find out just how deep the water is...and it is exceptionally nice to have a life jacket or raft (just in case). Great discussion topic, kenchiprincess! Love your thinking!!

I think that is a yes and no answer to if when you are thinking are you over doing it. It depends on what it is you are thinking about and why. Sometimes you have to think about things before you act on it or make a decision because you have to know and understand the consequences of your decision. There are times when I think it is okay to just do it but you have to be comfortable with whatever the consequences are.
