The Thought of Something

Why is it that the thought of something is usually worse than the actual something?

Like cleaning out the closet; dreading writing a paper; waiting for a contractor; telling our truth

Sometimes I think and dread for days something I have on my to do list.  I spend hours worrying about same.  When, in acuality, 99 out of 100 times, the act is so much simpler then the thought of doing it. 

When I want to talk to someone about something near and dear to my heart, sometimes I think about it for hours before I have the 'talk'.  The thought is usually so much worse then just doing it.  The doing it becomes the easy part.

What is up with this?

May U not waste Ur precious thinking time with dread/stress/anxiousness and, like Nike always said, Just Do It.

To me, 99 out of 100 times, the thinking is so much worse then the actual time spent doing.  Do it on! (whatever that means)
