The "Trap" Escape Problem
If we are fortunate and introspective we can often identify intellectual/character flaws in our ways of thinking/moving about in the world that repeatedly lead us astray. Not too surprisingly for a research scientist like myself, in my case, one of these flaws is the tendency toward over analysis. I don't believe in black and white and I have never seen a binary choice I can't make trinary. On top of that I am extremely skeptical of just about everything and anything. Not only does this make me a a good researcher, it also makes me a very annoying person to be around at times. Moreover, it can lead to a sort of intellectual blockage where action grinds to a halt because the number/variety of choices available are just too high and making a selection among them becomes well nigh impossible. The dreaded and cliched 'paralysis by (over)analysis.'

Get Your Mind Right
I feel the need to release some great tips about keeping our minds healthy.

Without someone to discuss what is on our minds, we would need to think through it ourselves. Thinking it over doesn't automatically mean you've found a solution or choosing what is best overall. I am sharing a process that can help someone through a lot of situations throughout their life. It is like a guideline to being a happy, healthy, productive person.

The Power Of No: Why I’ve Started Saying No More Often
We’ve all been taught from a young age to help anyone who could use a hand. I took this ideology and ran with it. Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve always sought out opportunities to help anyone who needed any assistance. Over the years, the feeling of knowing that I helped someone was so heartwarming that it became a feeling I sought out again and again. I enjoyed doing my part to create a culture where people shared burdens and emphasized with people. So each time I did a favor for someone or went out of my way to help them, I didn’t care what it took; I was just happy to make a difference.

Why and How I Like To Keep My Mind Busy
A few years ago, I spent my pockets of time with mindless things like watching YouTube or TV. I numbed my mind, ignored its feigning curiosity, and never explored the depths of my mind. I watered down the ability of my mind with long stretches of inactivity, of low-level thiking, if any at all.
