010 Detail-Oriented or Overthinking? Meet Intel, the Over-Analyzer


Listen Later

You think you’re just detail-oriented. Truth is, most of the time it’s Intel — the Over-Analyzer Soldier — running outdated missions in your head. He’s the one making you hesitate, rewrite, stall, and second-guess.


In this episode, I break down:


Where Intel comes from and the childhood moments that wired him in.


How overthinking shows up today — at work, with women, and at home.


Why hesitation feels safe but kills trust, momentum, and connection.


The stoplight framework (Red. Yellow. Green.) to retrain your Intel.


What Balanced Intel looks like — sharp, decisive, respected.


Bottom line: Overthinking isn’t protecting you. It’s an old survival pattern costing you money, sex, and peace. Time to take back command.
