HALF WAY TO DO 100 THING!


One night, Corissa messaged Tom:


"It’s often unhelpful to get trapped in simple stories, but how do you know when to trust your gut? Our instincts aren’t always wrong. And pushed too far, obsessing over telling lots of different stories (overthinking??) could also become a trap in its own right?"


Today, we tell some stories, and we talk about how to get untrapped.


Overthinking vs underthinking. Rumination vs experimentation. Gut instinct vs rational consideration.


When are you telling too many stories? When are you not telling enough? We talk through this question, and share ideas for how you can escape from all the traps.
