“The weight of overthinking” Exactly a year ago, I had an idea that kept me awake at night. It felt like a spark, something with potential. But instead of acting on it, I spent countless hours thinking. What if it doesn’t work? What if I fail? What if people don’t get it? And in all that what if-ing, I wasted time. I let overthinking paralyze me while someone else, with a similar concept, took action. Today, they’ve secured $5 million in funding.At first, I felt defeated. But then it hit me—this isn’t a race; it’s about doing. I might be late to the game, but that doesn’t mean the game is over. So here I am, finally building what I should have started a year ago. The lesson? Overthinking is the thief of opportunity. So now, I’m building. It’s not easy. Some days are still tough. But I’d rather be in the arena, failing forward, than sitting on the sidelines overthinking. If you’ve been hesitating to start, let this be a sign: It’s never too late to act.
