This is a balance I have yet to master: when to stop thinking and start doing and then conversely, when to think a bit before jumping right in and impulsively doing something. This is very possibly just a personal trait of mine but I thought I'd throw it in on the aqua board in case it is something a lot of aqua have or perhaps some useful astrological suggestions could be made as to how it can be rectified.
Anyway basically I find myself thinking too much about isues, situtations and in so doing I recede into an ivory tower where it becomes nearly an intellectual meditation and the practical associations of it become secondary so that after all this thinking, I probable don't do that much about it. Perhaps I take on board far too many angles in my consideration of whatever I'm thinking about or perhaps it's to do with my being way too rigorous/perfectionistic about these practical matters (a fect of the fixed quality of the aquarius sign?). Anyway the result is that I lose track of the practical reality of whatever the issue is and so my actions appear disjointed and disorganised. If I was to classify my "condition" I would say it is one facet of a general lack of intuition as to when to stop thinking and start doing. Do any fellow aqua's have this disorder too?
Ha ha ha things always turn out better for me if I just DO them. When I think too much I get stuck so I'm inclined to jump into things after some quick thought where I suspecccttt my mind has weighted options in less than a second lol I trust myself and I don't always know why I do something but it turns out good 🙂
The only times when things go raw is when I jump into something while emotionally charged... as in angry or whatever... that I take my time with cuz when I haven't... oh mannnnn lol
Yeah but this can be taken to an extreme which I seem to be doing these days. I mean, theoretically, one could think about even the most trivial thing forever and never come out feeling you've done the right thing or whatever. It's a disorder in this case and I have it!
If I'm looking at it astrologically and as the aqua I am, I'd say that I'm over endowed with the aqua airy cerebralness and I need to start feeling and doing and following my intuitive nose. I think Leo's do this way more; maybe I should take a leaf out their book.
OFA: yeah I totally agree with you in that I too tend to make big fcuk ups and say stoopid things and generally exarcerbate things when I'm angry or emotional and at these times I should tie myself up and gag myself. 🙂
I was reading about adult attention deficit disorder, symptoms mirror some of the traits mentioned. just throwing it out for comment—
characteristics of Adult AD😱
may be perceived as aloof and arrogant or tiresomely talkative and boorish seemingly random and aimless hopping from one topic to the next procrastination - difficulty starting tasks incompletions - tasks or book reading begun but not finished before new projects or new books are started, leaving a never-ending to-do list insecurity and self-esteem issues because of unmet high personal expectations often high achiever, even overachiever, but with poor self-image because of beliefs that more could be accomplished if not for disorganization and endless thinking.
OFA: yeah I know the feeling. When I'm at work during the day here GMT time, all you guys are still asleep or having your breakfast or something! Well it's bed time over where I am now. Good night!
