HOW DO I STOP OVERTHINKING ONCE AND FOR ALL?

Can stop, will stop.


Overthinking is like getting a bad pimple—it happens to everyone. Your mom, your sister, your best friend (obviously...you're the first to hear about it!), they're all guilty of it. So before I get started, take solace in knowing that you're not alone in your never-ending "Omg, what if..." thoughts. Especially if you're the high-achiever type (which, duh, you are!), it's human nature to try to analyze people and situations—but sometimes, you have to let that ish go.

DO I HAVE UNREALISTIC EXPECTATIONS IN MY RELATIONSHIP?

One word: probably.


When it comes to relationships, there's one magic word that gets an especially bad rap: expectations. But I'm here to tell you that having expectations—a.k.a. preconceived notions about how your relationship should run or your partner should treat you—is a great thing, because it shows you value yourself and have standards. The problem, however, is that oftentimes, your expectations don't match up to those of your significant other—or to things that any average person can or would want to fulfill—landing you in unrealistic territory.

QUOTES AND TIPS ON DATING, RELATIONSHIPS,AND DECISION-MAKING

 

 

DR. CHLOE FOR WIKIHOW

 

How to Court a Man


Courtship is the process by which two people get to know one another and decide if they have the possibility of a future together. Courting is different than dating in that courtship is a bit more serious, often with religious motivations and looking to the future with marriage as the ultimate goal. Sometimes courting can be more restricted than dating – with chaperone supervision, strict physical boundaries, or predetermined periods of interaction. If you want to court a man, you should make sure that you are compatible by spending time together, learning about his interests and background, and talking about your respective goals for the future.

How to Be a Good Manager


In every large organization, there's a hierarchy of management that keeps the whole operation running smoothly. A good manager is able to blend into the background, changing small things here and there to great effect. Being a good manager is about leading by example. It's one of the toughest jobs out there — in part because you have to manage other people's expectations — and also because it's one of the least acknowledged tasks. Despite this, there are several tricks of the trade that will help you successfully manage all your responsibility, in style and with verve. Continue reading here.

How to Know if You Have Anxiety


Anxiety is a psychological malady associated with feelings of tension, worry and dread. While a certain amount of anxiety is a normal feature of modern life, excessive anxiety can be extremely unpleasant, and can be harmful to long-term physical and mental health. Because anxiety can affect many aspects of the sufferer's sense of physical and mental well-being at once, and in subtle ways which may not seem related to anxiety, it can be difficult to identify when you are suffering the symptoms of anxiety. Understanding the physical and psychological symptoms of excessive anxiety, as well as the symptoms of intense, overwhelming episodes called anxiety attacks, is crucial for understanding the role of anxiety in your life.
