Living in my head

[Caveman]

Hello, this might seems a bit weird but I have a really bad habit that I can't seem to get rid off. When I want to do something I will vizualise it in my head but won't do it. For exemple, I might see myself going and talk to a pretty girl but in reality nothing will happen. The same thing can happen for more common thing like talking about an issue with a friend or a family member. It seems my life is filled with these occurrence, like they happen more than once each day. What do you think is the cause of this ? How can I solve this problem ? I know some will say, well dont vizualise those things, just do it but it doesnt happen...

 

Thanks

Often I tend to do the same thing...my friends now say I'm a dreamer For me it happens at any given time during the day, frequently when I have something that's a problem on my mind and I keep visualizing different possible ways to fix it by either talking it out or something else; depends on the issue. I actually find this helpful in my case, because by going into my own little world I have the time to think of ways to do or say certain things. I wish I could come up with a way to get rid of this "habbit" as you called it, but I really don't see it as a problem.

 

Maybe you won't act on these things because you're shy? If you're not, then I don't see why you won't just go and make whatever you see in your mind happen. Try The first step is always the hardest. Plus, it's a whole lot easier to see something happen in your mind than to actually go and act on it, because we can never be sure that people will react the way we pictured them. But hey, you only live once...I say give it a try one of these days, maybe it'll get easier from there.

I can relate to that experience. What do you visualise when you are talking with her? Why not visualise that you are going to NOT talk to her and use some reverse psychology on yourself. Make a visualisaiton contrary to what you want to happen, and see if what you want to happen will work.

I don't think you're at all unusual in this, it's quite common.

lol That is a well tought idea but I'm not sure it would work for me . Really, my problem is that I tend to go too far in my tought. Often, my vision will end up to something that is impossible. I think I just need to stop thinking and act a bit more
