"Ne pense pas. Penser est l'ennemi."

Simplified Meaning:

Sometimes, thinking too much can stop us from taking action. Imagine you have a simple task, like making a phone call. If you think too long about every detail, you might worry about saying the wrong thing or how the person on the other end will react. This can make you so anxious that you avoid making the call altogether. In sports, athletes often perform best when they rely on their training and instincts instead of overthinking every move. For example, a basketball player might miss a shot if they overthink their technique instead of just letting their muscle memory take over. So, in many situations, it's better to act quickly and trust your instincts rather than getting stuck in endless thinking. This helps you be more confident and less stressed, making it easier to complete tasks and make decisions. To apply this advice in your life, try to calm your mind and focus on what you need to do instead of worrying about every little detail. You’ll likely find that you get things done more efficiently and feel more at ease.
