Do you try to understand things in life or just go in without thinking too much?

I've been trying to understand things and slowly move forward in life. But now I feel like I need to be more open and think less. But I also feel like I've been developing myself too much and using too much energy instead of focusing on my day to day obligations. But that's a different problem.

I feel both is good and I'm just happy I'm alive and get to try out things :) I'm autistic so I don't get some things but I still think I get some value from some experiences even if I don't fully grasp wtf was going on or why it was important. Just by being there it benefits me in some way even if it's not tangible. I need to just follow my gut sometimes. Life is really complicated. I think I've established a good basic set of skills just to get by but I still need to specialize and really hone in on what I want to do.

But it's ok I have time. Anyway how do you approach life?

I sometimes feel like understanding myself was the longer path... worth it though

started very early as well

being introspective with myself, made it easier to understand others... and then, about life, I just figure it along with others... and I do so in few ways, being open to experiences, your own as well as the experiences of others can certainly broaden your perspective...

and, many things in life are about that... perspective, yours and that of others as well

when it comes to thinking, I can't help it but to think a lot and to think all the time... I just made sure that it doesn't become overthinking nor inaction, I do try to be proactive instead

I have to understand or it will bother me until the day I die...
