Over thinking

I find myself paralysed at the moment. I have millions of thoughts coursing through my head. Lots of options and possibilities on the horizon, all positive. Yet, I am finding it really difficult to make a decision. It feels like I am letting mistakes of the past and the fear of making them again, stop […]
