When you're stuck in your head, ask yourself: will this matter in five days? If not, let it go. Most worries about what others think or how you look don't stick around, so stop burning mental energy on things that won't.
Overthinking again? Try this: ask yourself one question: Will this matter in 5 days? If the answer's no, let it go. We waste so much energy on tiny things—what they said, how we looked, what could go wrong. But most of it doesn't matter. So next time your thoughts spiral, don't fight them. Just ask: Will this matter in 5 days? If not, breathe and let it go.
