"You're thinking about this too much Justin".

WTF?  Aren't you people always calling people "stupid"?!  So over-analyzing isn't an antidote!  Well WHAT the fuck do you want?  It's 'thinking too much' versus 'everyone (else) is stupid'.  Think about it.  And don't give me that instinct/innate crap.

I can promise you that you are not thinking about anything too much . Such an idea, or possibility, doesn't exist! If anything, you aren't thinking enough. To think enough, you have to come to some conclusions and then base line them as your convictions. We can't possibly do that enough.

As Bill Callahan put it, "have faith in wordless knowledge."

On the other hand, this "thinking about it too much" line is usually directed at someone ruminating excessively over a problem. In that case, he or she cannot be thinking about it too much - only thinking about it wrong; that is, he or she hasn't found the solution, or is stuck in some mental loop.

I think you're dead on. But then again, I might be thinking too much. :P

Nice to see you're back.
