Life Wisdom - By Words of Taoism

Welcome back to Daily Wisdom.
Most of us assume that courage is the opposite of fear. That to begin something new, we need to feel ready, certain, confident. We tell ourselves that when the conditions are right, when the noise quiets, when the season feels less heavy, then we will begin.

Welcome to Daily Wisdom.
This is a series of twenty short reflections built around questions I often receive in comments, hear in conversations, or recognize in the struggles of everyday life.
For the next four weeks, I want this series to be a small daily companion. Something you can listen to in the morning, during a walk, before sleep, or in one of those in-between moments when you feel a little far from yourself.
And today, we begin with a question many of us know too well: How to stop overthinking?
