Overthinking: the Ability to Live in Tomorrow’s Problems #375

from The Free Lawyer · host Gary Miles

Lawyers are excellent at thinking ahead, but when that instinct turns into constant worst-case rehearsing, it becomes a trap rather than a strength. In this episode of The Free Lawyer, Gary Miles shares why the same mental habits that make lawyers really good at their jobs also make them miserable after hours. The true cost of overthinking ranges from sleep disruption to strained relationships. Listen to this episode for the ten actionable tools designed specifically for lawyers to interrupt worry loops, return to the present, and regain control of their minds. Learn to distinguish solving from suffering, use grounding to shut off “awfulizing,” create a worry window, run a probability check, and take the next right action when anxiety tries to steal your focus.Get the Values Alignment Guide ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://upbeat-trailblazer-9238.kit.com/1604bbf4cb⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Take the Free Lawyer Assessment garymiles.net/the-free-lawyer-assessment Learn more about Breaking Free or order your copy ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.garymiles.net/break-free⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Schedule a complimentary discovery call: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://calendly.com/garymiles-successcoach/one-one-discovery-call⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Watch this episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqcfaTWo17uxmYS9hfAdiaQ
