Do you think or JUST DO IT? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 95/100. lordwarwizard (9946)   ranked 299 out of 30,319 in life5 months ago

"Just do it". I am sure this is a relatively familiar tag line for many myLotters. Credits to Nike.

What kind of person are you usually? Are you one who is "ruled" by your heart or your head? Are you a person of action or deliberation? Do you always think first or do first?

I think I am a passive procrastinator. If you want to be nasty but nice, you can call me a thinker. I don't usually "just do it". I normally think it through before I do things. Of course, there are times when I would get jerked by my heart too and do things without thinking... and sometimes I regret.

By thinking too much, some people might say that is just the same as indecisiveness. I beg to differ. By not deciding, you are making the decisive decision to do nothing. But I digress.

So what kind of person are you? Thinker? Do-er? Just do it? Or hang on... let me think first? Do share your thoughts.:D

Basically if we hear to people they say think before you do, but somethings are there when you think you just cant do it, somethings really need NO THINKING and thats when they really happen. Now a days, everything has turned into like this, where if you think, You lay back! and some one else without thinking it does it, and takes the glory!happy


myLot reputation of 95/100. lordwarwizard (9946)   ranked 299 out of 30,319 in life  5 months ago

Sure, if there are things that simply need to be done, JUST DO THEM.

That's called being proactive. rolleyes cool

I know i say first & think later,thats a fact!
As for the doing,well it depends on the situation.When it comes to money i just dont spend it,i think it all through,bit like that PTC situation.Years ago tho i wanted shoes so i went out & got them .
Oh i dont know,i am too weird to say just one,so we will go with them all!rolleyes


myLot reputation of 95/100. lordwarwizard (9946)   ranked 299 out of 30,319 in life  5 months ago

Say first? As in you promise something then think of how to fulfill that promise?

That's "dangerous"! rasp

I am all of the above, I do whatever strikes my fancy at the time. Sometimesyou feel like a nut, sometimes you don't. I love to do things on the spur of the moment, other times I think it thru. BTW, Have you talked to our friend Joey, I have been wondering about him. If you still do have contact with him, will you let him know I said hi and was thinking about him. He is a special guy.


myLot reputation of 95/100. lordwarwizard (9946)   ranked 299 out of 30,319 in life  5 months ago

Sounds like following your heart!

Yes regarding Joey. I missed him a bit too and so I contacted just a while back. He is doing fine. He just started a new job so he is kinda busy.

That's a tough one for me to answer, but I'll guess that I think about tasks a lot more before doing them, even though planning and practice for a specific task requires that you just do it, at some point...

Over-thinking can be just as wrong as under-thinking!:)


myLot reputation of 95/100. lordwarwizard (9946)   ranked 299 out of 30,319 in life  5 months ago

Yea! Sometimes we can be "paralyzed" by thinking too much! angry w00t

I can be indecisive, but after giving it some thought, I will reach a decision and then I will do it, or not do it.

I do think about things a lot, and I'm not sorry for it. I can make quick decisions when I have to. At work, for example, I used to have to make instant decisions and choices, and I did not always make the right one. More often though, I did get it right.

I think the only regrets I have in life are things I said or did without thought.


myLot reputation of 95/100. lordwarwizard (9946)   ranked 299 out of 30,319 in life  5 months ago

It sounds right. You are making the necessary decisions fast enough and deliberating just enough to avoid mistakes. lol

i'm just like you, lordwarwizard. most of the time it's not easy for me to make a decision especially if it'a an important one. i have to think through eveything, weigh in the pros and the cons. i'm not a risk taker and don't like to make hasty decisions that i'll regret later. but decision making can be quite a painful process for me. sometimes i get sick of it myself, and finally tell myself to just decide on one and not worry about it. but i've been getting better at it though. nowadays i can do it quicker than i used to, believing that most things can be changed or reversed.


myLot reputation of 95/100. lordwarwizard (9946)   ranked 299 out of 30,319 in life  5 months ago

Yea... sometimes I think I would be happier if I STARTED OFF with lower intelligence.

Have you read the new novel "Lottery" by Patricia Wood? It is about a retarded guy who won the lottery and has his life changed. I find the book an awesome read and certainly recommend it.

It is light, touching and possibly thought provoking.


myLot reputation of 90/100. aidenw (352)   ranked 2,291 out of 30,319 in life  5 months ago

i have not heard of that novel but i'll check it out. thanks, lord!


myLot reputation of 95/100. lordwarwizard (9946)   ranked 299 out of 30,319 in life  5 months ago

I really enjoyed the book. lol

hi lordwarwizard some of the time I just do it but mostly
'I sort of think things through. Sometimes when I act in
haste I just make a mess of the whole thing. So I go back
'to sort of thinking about things first then acting or not
acting as the case warrants.Right now I am in a quandary as
my son,0ur sole provider,is out of work and rent is coming
up, makes our situation sort of scary.


myLot reputation of 95/100. lordwarwizard (9946)   ranked 299 out of 30,319 in life  5 months ago

Hi Patsie,

That's why I sometimes pull back - too worried about making mistakes and... disappointing people...

I'm pretty much the thinker, I like to put a good amount of thought into thinks before actually taking action. Sometimes this does lead to the fact I am to late with certain things or think about all bad things that could happen that I miss out of certain things. So I am trying to be less a thinker in certain situations, allthough it suits me and I like it for the most of occaisions and decisions I have to make.


myLot reputation of 95/100. lordwarwizard (9946)   ranked 299 out of 30,319 in life  5 months ago

We just have to think quicker.

With practice, it is possible! lol


myLot reputation of 98/100. cyberfluf (1909)   ranked 4,464 out of 30,319 in life  5 months ago

I have gone from a jump in feet first person to a hang on let me think about it first. Everything I do now revolves around me taking a few hours, or days to think things through. I am terrible now compared to how I used to be.


myLot reputation of 95/100. lordwarwizard (9946)   ranked 299 out of 30,319 in life  5 months ago

Caused by a loss of confidence somewhere in the past? If you can let go, I think you can be back on your feet again. cool

Yes You are probably right!
