Hmmmm... You're asking me that, but I think I should think about it first. lol
I don't think of myself as an overthinker, because well - my wife overthinks.... to the point of anxiety.
I don't think of myself as an underthinker... I work with adults who don't seem to think much at all!
I am the Health and Safety Officer... which means I need to think for others, assess and categorise risks and come up with solutions to problems. I need to stop people from working unsafe and think about what they might think and do next or fail to do.
It is a lot of work.
So yeah, I guess I need a lot of logic but also use most of the methods of thinking. Perhaps not very abstract though.
I'm thinking that you thinking about me thinking about what you're thinking is a good Idea. It'll mean a better response. I think.
Anxiety can be a hazard of an overthinker and I'm really fortunate I don't experience that. IT's still time and energy consuming though. In my experience, WHS offices (workplace health and safety) are often always thinking, certainly on the job, and that comes with the territory. It's like being a military leader...people die if the leader isn't thinking.
Absolutely.
Right now I am also in the position of cleaning MY boss' messups... or at least his promises without thinking about what the implications are!
Some people are ill-suited to lead and it's left to others to do the real work.
