Overthinking At The Cost Of Doing

Overthinking at the cost of doing... That's a line I heard from Gary Vaynerchuck in one of his many awesome and blunt talks in regards to creating content/just doing what you want/need to do.

I woke up today early like I normally do and then fell back asleep.  I immediately started thinking in my head how I should have gotten up earlier to get on with my days tasks.  See, the thing with me is that I have become obsessed with becoming better.  A better version of myself that is.  Part of that better version gets up early to go to the gym & then gets started on the days tasks.  SOMETIMES though, it's more me keeping myself in motion, than actually being productive.  And that can actually have the opposite effect.

I have already been to the gym the past few days & have been working out hard on my rehab to continually recover from my shoulder surgery.  I am so exhausted today that I needed sleep.  Even knowing this, I felt guilt for not getting up, & "getting after it".  It's here that another part of improving comes into play.  Knowing when to also reflect & rest so that you can CONTINUE to kill it every other day.

Still, I went to the gym, ha-ha.  And what happened?  I worked out hard, for about 30 mins and then went home.  Not satisfied with my performance at the gym I am now even MORE tired and sore.  Now, I am overthinking the fact that I was overthinking in the first place!  So, to combat that I am currently working on video edits for the entrepreneur interview series called, 'Behind The Cut' ( a really fun interview series I started with my friend Mikey Denton where we interview influential type people at their place of business to find out how they got to where they are at) & stretching myself even more thin before I head out to go do a photoshoot tonight for some local awesome DJ's. I am channeling my overthinking into just doing.  Getting things done & rolling with the punches.  

This rant brought to you by lack of focus... 

Talk to you soon...
