Overthinking.
Adam Grant summarizes it so well that I have to share it with you:
The antidote to overthinking isn’t thinking less. It’s rethinking more.
Overthinking is ruminating on old ideas without a new lens. It narrows your focus and wears you out.
Rethinking is revisiting the same issue from a different perspective. It broadens and sharpens your view.
So, if you’re a manager facing challenges with team dynamics, products, or interfaces, Stop and ask yourself: Are you ruminating, or are you rethinking the issue?
Want to break free from the cycle of overthinking?
Challenge yourself to ask new questions, step into others’ shoes, or seek input from someone with a fresh perspective.

Managers facing team or product challenges are advised to challenge themselves with new questions or seek fresh input to break free from overthinking cycles.
