00:00mamoto Musashi the renowned Ronan and
00:03philosopher had a lot to say about
00:05overthinking his teachings focused on
00:08controlling our thoughts and who better
00:09to learn from than a guy who constantly
00:11faced Swordsmen trying to get him he had

00:16useless thoughts quickly in this video

00:28away and I encourage you to stick around
00:30until the end to catch all the important
00:32lessons that could make a difference in
00:34your life but before you can fix your
00:36overthinking you need to figure out
00:38what's causing it moushi had some great
00:41insight into this he said perceive that
00:45which cannot be seen with the eye what
00:47he meant is that you need to be real
00:49with yourself and look inward to
00:51identify the root of your mental
00:52struggles it's about going Beyond
00:54surface level thoughts and diving into
00:56your deepest fears and insecurities the
00:59ones that SP darkk overthinking when you
01:01do this you'll find Clarity moushi knew
01:04that understanding what's beneath the
01:06surface is key to overcoming
01:08overthinking by acknowledging your inner
01:10fears you can begin to address them and
01:12move forward you must understand that
01:15there is more than one path to the top
01:17of the mountain this gem from moushi
01:20speaks to the value of being flexible
01:22and open-minded overthinking often
01:24occurs when we become rigid fixated on
01:27finding the perfect solution mhi's
01:30advice is straightforward be adaptable
01:33accept that there's more than one way to
01:35solve a problem and let go of the
01:37anxiety that comes from
01:39perfectionism we often feel like our
01:41lives are mapped out for us society's
01:44blueprint says born go to school get a
01:46degree get a job work until retirement
01:49then that's it but this path doesn't
01:51suit everyone overthinking tends to
01:54appear when we sense that we're meant
01:55for something different when the
01:57standard path feels out of sync with our
02:00true desires it's as if there's an
02:02internal conflict between what Society
02:04expects of us and what we genuinely want
02:08mhi's wisdom is pretty relevant here He
02:11suggests stepping back and observing
02:13this battle overthinking arises when our
02:16imposed beliefs battle with our true
02:18desires by watching this battle you
02:21choose which side wins recognizing that
02:25there are many paths to success allows
02:27you to find your way without getting
02:29trapped in the cycle of
02:31overthinking to illustrate let's say
02:33you're feeling pressure to follow a
02:35traditional career path maybe your
02:37parents want you to become a doctor but
02:39deep down you want to pursue something
02:42unconventional like a graphic designer
02:45this internal battle leads to
02:47overthinking but if you adopt mhi's
02:50mindset you'll see that your unique path
02:52might be different but equally valid by
02:55focusing on what you actually want to do
02:57and removing the other voices you can
02:59dial in on that thing and manifest it
03:03reality moving on to the next strategy
03:06do nothing that is of no use this quote
03:10is all about focusing on what's
03:11important and purposeful overthinking
03:13often happens when we dwell on things
03:15that don't matter moushi encourages us
03:18to eliminate unnecessary thoughts and
03:20focus on what's crucial think about how
03:23often we get dragged into useless drama
03:26whether it's people around us or social
03:28media we end up absorbing nonsense That
03:30clouds our minds and pulls us away from
03:33our goals it's everywhere YouTubers
03:36hyping up drama gossip filling our feeds
03:39and pointless debates cluttering our
03:41thoughts you might find yourself
03:43wondering will Mike Tyson at 57 beat a
03:4728-year-old Jake Paul but really who
03:50cares it's just filler occupying your
03:54mind and keeping you from what's
03:55important to you this kind of
03:57distraction is where overthinking often
03:59takes root you might think should I
04:01study more for this thing or can I watch
04:04just one more video and then when you
04:07finally sit down to study your mind
04:08wanders questioning am I doing enough
04:11will this actually help me the Clutter
04:14of unnecessary thoughts creates space
04:16for doubt and fear if you remove the
04:19useless stuff and focus on what matters
04:22you won't even give overthinking a
04:23chance there won't be room for doubt or
04:26fear to creep in because your mind will
04:28be too busy with with purposeful action
04:31the key is to stay focused on what you
04:33know you need to do and clear away the
04:35distractions that don't serve
04:38you building on the momentum from our
04:40last Point Let's tap into another piece
04:43of mhi's wisdom today is victory over
04:46yourself of yesterday tomorrow is your
04:49victory over lesser men this mindset is
04:52all about focusing on self-improvement
04:54each and every day often overthinking is
04:57fueled by comparing ourselves to others
04:59or fretting about what the future might
05:01hold but moushi teaches us to
05:04concentrate on personal progress and
05:06discipline shifting our Focus away from
05:09unproductive thoughts and towards
05:10improving ourselves bit by bit think
05:13about it this way you've got 24 hours
05:16today that's all you're guaranteed
05:19tomorrow isn't promised and honestly it
05:22never is your job is to live fully in
05:26those 24 hours giving 100% to what's in
05:29front front of you right now forget
05:31about what might happen 3 weeks from now
05:34if you don't do something today just
05:36take it one day at a time when you adopt
05:40this one day at a time philosophy you'll
05:42start noticing how much you actually
05:44accomplish each day is unique a gift
05:48from God that's meant for you to
05:49experience life to the fullest and focus
05:52on the present tasks tomorrow isn't
05:54guaranteed but if you live fully today
05:56you'll be better prepared for whatever
05:58life throws your way tomorrow
06:00carrying on from the idea of living
06:02dayby day let's dive into another
06:05crucial lesson from moushi there is
06:09everything mhi's grasp of timing wasn't
06:12just about martial arts it applies to
06:15life too it teaches us patience and the
06:18importance of seizing opportunities when
06:20they truly arise not just when we want
06:23them to overthinking is often a result
06:26of impatience or craving immediate
06:28results but moushi reminds us that
06:31rushing usually just leads to stress and
06:34mistakes think about someone dreaming of
06:36becoming a lawyer they're likely
06:38captivated by the end result envisioning
06:41themselves in a courtroom winning big
06:43cases but they tend to gloss over the
06:45reality of getting there the long hours
06:48the grind the intense studying they see
06:51the destination but not the journey then
06:53when they face the actual challenges
06:55doubt floods in should I really be doing
06:58this maybe I should change my major or
07:00get a job mhi's wisdom tells us there's
07:03a right time for everything if you try
07:06to rush through your journey you might
07:08just push your goals further away and
07:11that's when overthinking swoops in
07:13making your mind a mess of doubts and
07:15wha ifs remember good things take time
07:20and there's a natural Rhythm to how
07:22things unfold respecting that timing can
07:24help keep your mind clear and focused
07:27letting you move forward when the moment
07:29is is truly right do not let the body be
07:32dragged Along by the Mind nor the mind
07:35be dragged Along by the body this advice
07:38from moushi really struck a chord with
07:40me it's about balance overthinking often
07:44happens when the Mind races ahead or
07:46gets caught up in things that don't
07:47align with the body's needs mhi's wisdom
07:50emphasizes sinking the mind and body
07:53creating a harmonious state that cuts
07:55down on mental clutter in my life I tend
07:58to focus on two main things things work
08:00whether it's YouTube or my business and
08:03Brazilian jiujitsu whenever I focused
08:06more on one the other suffered and that
08:08imbalance led to a lot of overthinking
08:11when I was training my mind would wander
08:13and I'd think about all the work waiting
08:15for me at home and when I was working
08:17I'd stress about not improving at
08:19Jiu-Jitsu because I wasn't training as
08:21much my mind and body were out of sync
08:24and it created a lot of unnecessary
08:26stress but then I came across mhi quote
08:30and it hit home I realized I needed to
08:33balance my focus I decided to prioritize
08:36different things for different seasons
08:39surprisingly once I did that I found
08:41myself enjoying the present moment more
08:44regardless of what I was doing it's
08:46amazing how a bit of balance can bring
08:49Clarity and peace of
08:51mind and staying on the same idea moushi
08:55also said something that you might have
08:56seen on your gym wall the way is is in
08:59training he wasn't just talking about
09:01physical drills he was spotlighting the
09:04power of practice and discipline which
09:07goes a long way in managing overthinking
09:10and here's the thing sometimes we're our
09:12own worst enemies we expect way too much
09:16from ourselves get pissed off when we
09:18don't meet those Skyhigh standards and
09:20guess what that leads right back to
09:22overthinking the reality is all that
09:25energy you're wasting on beating
09:27yourself up could be channeled into
09:28working towards your goals face the
09:31reality of where you are stop wishing
09:33without action and start doing that's
09:36how you make real progress but fixing
09:39overthinking is just one piece of the
09:41puzzle imagine yourself as a project
09:44with unique aspects you don't struggle
09:46with maybe social interactions come
09:48naturally or you've never dealt with
09:50anxiety but you might have other issues
