7My name is Olga, I just graduated from the我叫奥尔加,我刚毕业
8University of Pennsylvania where I studied computation and cognitive science and after宾夕法尼亚大学,我在那里学习 计算和认知科学
9the last four years of studying how the human mind works this is genuinely one of the most研究人类心灵如何工作的四年 确实是最伟大的
10interesting things I've learned about.我学到了有趣的东西
11There's a common misconception that you overthink because有一个常见的误解 你过度思考 因为
12you're just very analytical, your brain works just harder than other people's, you think too much,你只是非常有分析力, 你的大脑工作比别人的,你认为太多,
13you're just way too smart and obviously this framing feels kind of good because it turns你只是太聪明了 很明显这个框架感觉很好 因为它转弯了
14a problem that people have into kind of like a compliment but imagine a situation.这个问题人们有 有点像一个恭维 但想象一种情况。
15So let's take所以,让我们采取
16an example from my life.我生命中的一个例子
17I for the longest time wanted to become a YouTuber and start a YouTube我长久以来一直想成为YouTube手 开始一个YouTube
18channel but instead of actually creating a YouTube channel I spent months and years thinking about我花了好几个月时间思考
19what gear I have to get, what sort of editing software to use, what would I even make videos我能得到什么设备, 什么样的编辑软件 要使用, 我什至会制作视频
20about so I was just thinking and thinking and thinking about it and overthinking every single所以我在思考 思考和思考 思考和思考
21{\fn黑体\fs22\bord1\shad0\3aHBE\4aH00\fscx67\fscy66\2cHFFFFFF\3cH808080}我不得不迈出一步 {\fn黑体\fs22\bord1\shad0\3aHBE\4aH00\fscx67\fscy66\2cHFFFFFF\3cH808080}开始YouTube频道
22So explain to me how exactly所以给我解释一下究竟
23does overthinking help us here?有没有想太多帮我们?
24Because I cannot see why overthinking, over worrying, over researching因为我不明白为什么过度思考 过度担心 过度研究
25can be helpful because it basically delays the moment when you actually have to take action因为它基本上拖延了 你真正必须采取行动的时刻
26and see the result.看看结果
27So if overthinking is not helping why does our brain keep doing it instead所以,如果过度思考没有帮助 为什么我们的大脑继续这样做
28of just taking action?仅仅采取行动?
29Well because taking action means that you have to face uncertainty因为采取行动意味着 你必须面对不确定性
30and our brains hate uncertainty.我们的大脑讨厌不确定
31When you're recording the first video you don't know if it's当你录制第一部录像时,你不知道是不是
32going to be good, you don't know if people are going to judge you, you don't know if the idea会好起来的,你不知道 如果人们要去判断你,你不知道 如果想法
33you've been planning is going to survive contact with reality and our brain hates that uncertainty,你一直在计划 要活下来接触现实 我们的大脑讨厌这种不确定性,
34our brain basically treats that uncertainty as a real threat.我们的大脑基本上将这种不确定性视为真正的威胁。
35Instead of letting you take action而不是让你采取行动
36and find out what is going to happen, which would actually resolve that uncertainty,并找出将会发生什么, 这将解决这种不确定性,
37it offers you a deal.它给你一个交易。
38Your brain says oh do not do this scary thing yet, do not do this,你的大脑说哦,不要做这种可怕的事情, 不要这样做,
39research a little bit more, think about it a little bit more, analyze it a little bit more,研究更多一点,思考更多,分析更多,
40oh and then we're going to have certainty, then we're going to know what is the best course of哦,然后我们将有确定性, 然后我们将知道什么是最好的路线
41action.行动。
42And your mind creates something that I personally like to call like a certainty loop.你的思想创造了一些我个人喜欢称之为确定循环的东西。
43So first you're faced with the decision or a goal or a plan that has an uncertain outcome所以首先你面对的是决定 目标 或计划
44and that uncertainty it feels very threatening.和这种不确定性 它感到非常威胁。
45So in order to resolve the uncertainty you start为了解决你开始的不确定性
46to overthink, you start to overanalyze, compare options, do planning and that gives you temporary你开始过度分析 比较各种选择 做计划 让你暂时
47relief from the uncertainty.解脱无常.
48But the certainty never actually arrives because you cannot be但确定性从未真正到达 因为你不可能
49about an outcome before you've actually lived it.在你真正体验到这个结果之前
50So the uncertainty comes back and it only所以,不确定性又回来了,它只是
51will be resolved once you're actually done with the action, done with the plan.一旦你完成了行动,完成了计划,就解决了
52A researcher named有个研究员
53Thomas Borkovitz at Penn State University studied this problem for decades and he actually found宾州大学的托马斯·博尔科维茨(Thomas Borkovitz)研究了这个问题几十年,他实际上发现
54out that overthinking functions as emotional avoidance.从过度思考的功能 避免情绪。
55When you research and you analyze and当你研究并分析
56worry you're actually engaging with the problem at arm's length and that protects you from the担心你实际上正忙于解决问题 保护你不受伤害
57of uncertainty.不确定因素。
58And there's another reason why this overthinking loop is so hard to escape.还有另一个原因,为什么这个过度思考的循环 是如此难以逃脱。
59So there's a phenomenon in psychology called the Zagarnik effect and it's when your brain treats所以心理学中有一种现象 叫做扎加尼克效应 当你的大脑治疗
60every unfinished task, every unmade decision, every unsent message is basically an open tab.每一个未完成的任务,每一个未完成的决定,每一个未发的消息基本上是一个公开的标签.
61So if you were to imagine your brain as a browser and you're clicking through different things,所以,如果你想象你的大脑作为一个浏览器 你点击不同的东西,
62about many different ideas, every single unmade decision would stay as an open tab in your brain关于许多不同的想法,每一个非做决定 都会留在你的大脑中做一个公开的标签
63and you would always see it on the on the top of the browser.你会在浏览器的顶部看到它。
64For example, you know when you比如,你知道当你
65receive an important email but you do not immediately reply to it and then in the middle收到了一封重要的邮件,但您不会立即回复,然后在中间
66of the day you're going to keep remembering about replying to this email.那天,你将不断记住 关于答复这封邮件。
67In the middle of a在中间
68conversation with someone, in the shower, taking a walk, you're always going to be getting reminded和某人谈话,在洗澡,散步, 你总是会得到提醒
69by your brain that oh there's an email I have to reply to, there's an email I have to reply to你的大脑,哦,有封邮件 我必须回答,有封邮件 我必须回答
70and it's never going to actually leave you until you go and reply to that email.它永远不会真正离开你 直到你去回复电子邮件。
71And it keeps它会保持
72running in the background because it is your brain's way of making sure that important things do not在背景中运行,因为这是你的大脑的方式 确保重要的东西不
73get forgotten.被遗忘。
74So when you're stuck in the certainty loop you never actually act on anything, you keep所以,当你被困在确定循环中 你从来没有真正行动 在任何东西,你保持
75overthinking and trying to reach that certainty but the certainty never arrives because you never过度思考和试图达到这种确定性 但确定性从来没有到达 因为你从来没有
76actually complete the action.实际完成动作。
77And that's where the Zagarnik effect comes in because you keep扎加尼克效应就因为你一直
78being reminded by your brain about all the plans that you have and it's actually just it's like a被你的大脑提醒 关于你的所有计划 实际上它就像一个
79ton of open tabs in your mind that keep cluttering your mental space.在你的脑海中,一吨的开放的标签 让你的心灵空间。
80So how do we actually close所以,我们如何真正关闭
81these tabs?这些标签?
82You might think that you have to make every decision, finish every task, complete every你可能认为你必须做出所有的决定 完成所有任务 完成所有
83project, but no.项目,但没有。
84Researchers Baumeister and Mazzicampo found something very interesting.研究人员鲍梅斯特和马兹坎波发现了非常有趣的东西.
85They found that your brain doesn't actually need every task to be done, it just needs to create a他们发现你的大脑并不需要做所有的工作, 它只需要创造一个
86plan to resolve it.计划解决它。
87When people in their study took an unfinished goal and they wrote down a specific当人们在研究中追求一个未完成的目标 他们写下一个具体的目标
88plan of how they would complete it, their intrusive thoughts, their overthinking, it stopped.计划如何完成它, 他们侵入性的想法, 他们的过度思考, 它停止了。
89So the所以说
90first exit from the certainty loop is very simple.首先退出确定循环非常简单。
91So you sit down, you take pen and paper and you所以,你坐下,你拿 笔和纸,你
92write down every single open tab that you have in your mind.写下你脑中的每一个打开的标签。
93So every unmade decision, every plan,所以,每一个非决定,每一个计划,
94every dream you have, everything that you keep thinking about, also very minor things as well,你所有的梦想,你一直在想的一切, 还有非常小的事情,
95every random email that you forgot to reply to, every message you forgot to reply to,每一封你忘记回答的随机邮件 每一封你忘记回答的信息
96and just write it down from your mind and onto paper.把它写在你的脑海里和纸上
97Then for each one of them write a concrete然后,他们各写一个混凝土,
98next step of how you're going to resolve it and how you're going to turn a thought into an action.下一步你如何解决这个问题 如何把想法变成行动
99Personally, I love to write a brain dump like this on my iPad.我个人喜欢在我的iPad上写一个像这样的大脑垃圾堆.
100It's where I write my notes,这是我写笔记的地方,
101my plans, my tasks I have to do, plan my videos.我的计划,我的任务 我必须做, 计划我的视频。
102I use a screen protector called Paperlike 3 which我使用一个屏幕保护器 叫做纸3
103has this nano dot surface and it gives you real friction when you write.有了这个纳米点的表面, 它让你真正的摩擦 当你写。
104So it basically feels所以基本上感觉
105like you're writing pen on paper instead of writing pen on glass.就像你在纸上写笔 而不是在玻璃上写笔

107producing this nano dots technology that has this paper feel experience without actually产生这种纳米点 技术,有这张纸 感觉经验没有实际

130Basically,基本上说

29Well because taking action means that you have to face uncertainty因为采取行动意味着 你必须面对不确定性
30and our brains hate uncertainty.我们的大脑讨厌不确定
31When you're recording the first video you don't know if it's当你录制第一部录像时,你不知道是不是
32going to be good, you don't know if people are going to judge you, you don't know if the idea会好起来的,你不知道 如果人们要去判断你,你不知道 如果想法
33you've been planning is going to survive contact with reality and our brain hates that uncertainty,你一直在计划 要活下来接触现实 我们的大脑讨厌这种不确定性,
34our brain basically treats that uncertainty as a real threat.我们的大脑基本上将这种不确定性视为真正的威胁。
35Instead of letting you take action而不是让你采取行动
36and find out what is going to happen, which would actually resolve that uncertainty,并找出将会发生什么, 这将解决这种不确定性,
37it offers you a deal.它给你一个交易。
38Your brain says oh do not do this scary thing yet, do not do this,你的大脑说哦,不要做这种可怕的事情, 不要这样做,
39research a little bit more, think about it a little bit more, analyze it a little bit more,研究更多一点,思考更多,分析更多,
40oh and then we're going to have certainty, then we're going to know what is the best course of哦,然后我们将有确定性, 然后我们将知道什么是最好的路线
41action.行动。
42And your mind creates something that I personally like to call like a certainty loop.你的思想创造了一些我个人喜欢称之为确定循环的东西。
43So first you're faced with the decision or a goal or a plan that has an uncertain outcome所以首先你面对的是决定 目标 或计划
44and that uncertainty it feels very threatening.和这种不确定性 它感到非常威胁。
45So in order to resolve the uncertainty you start为了解决你开始的不确定性
46to overthink, you start to overanalyze, compare options, do planning and that gives you temporary你开始过度分析 比较各种选择 做计划 让你暂时
47relief from the uncertainty.解脱无常.
48But the certainty never actually arrives because you cannot be但确定性从未真正到达 因为你不可能
49about an outcome before you've actually lived it.在你真正体验到这个结果之前
50So the uncertainty comes back and it only所以,不确定性又回来了,它只是
51will be resolved once you're actually done with the action, done with the plan.一旦你完成了行动,完成了计划,就解决了
52A researcher一个研究员
53named Thomas Borkovitz at Penn State University studied this problem for decades and he actually宾州大学的托马斯·博科维茨 研究了这个问题几十年 他实际上
54found out that overthinking functions as emotional avoidance.发现这种过度思考的功能是避免情绪。
55When you research and you analyze and当你研究并分析
56worry you're actually engaging with the problem at arm's length and that protects you from the担心你实际上正忙于解决问题 保护你不受伤害
57feeling of uncertainty.感觉不确定
58And there's another reason why this overthinking loop is so hard to escape.还有另一个原因,为什么这个过度思考的循环 是如此难以逃脱。
59So there's a phenomenon in psychology called the Zygarnik effect and it's when your brain treats所以心理学中有一个现象 叫做Zygarnik效应 当你的大脑治疗
60every unfinished task, every unmade decision, every unsent message is basically an open tab.每一个未完成的任务,每一个未完成的决定,每一个未发的消息基本上是一个公开的标签.
61So if you were to imagine your brain as a browser and you're clicking through different things,所以,如果你想象你的大脑作为一个浏览器 你点击不同的东西,
62thinking about many different ideas, every single unmade decision would stay as an open考虑到许多不同的想法, 每一个未经做出的决定都会作为一个开放的
63tab in your brain and you would always see it on the on the top of the browser.选项卡在你的大脑中,你总是看到它在浏览器的顶部。
64For example,举例来说,
65you know when you receive an important email but you do not immediately reply to it and then in你知道当你收到一个重要的电子邮件, 但你不会立即回复它,然后进入
66the middle of the day you're going to keep remembering about replying to this email.中天,你会一直记得 关于回复这封邮件。
67In
68the middle of a conversation with someone, in the shower, taking a walk, you're always going to be和某人谈话, 在洗澡,散步, 你总是会
69reminded by your brain that oh there's an email I have to reply to, there's an email I have to reply你的大脑提醒我,哦,有封邮件 我必须回答,有封邮件 我必须回答
70to and it's never going to actually leave you until you go and reply to that email and it keeps直到你回了那封邮件 才离开你
71running in the background because it is your brain's way of making sure that important things do not在背景中运行,因为这是你的大脑的方式 确保重要的东西不
72get forgotten.被遗忘。
73So when you're stuck in the certainty loop you never actually act on anything, you keep所以,当你被困在确定循环中 你从来没有真正行动 在任何东西,你保持
74overthinking and trying to reach that certainty but the certainty never arrives because you never过度思考和试图达到这种确定性 但确定性从来没有到达 因为你从来没有
75actually complete the action and that's where the Zagarnick effect comes in because you keep扎加尼克效应就是因为你一直保留
76being reminded by your brain about all the plans that you have and it's actually just it's like a被你的大脑提醒 关于你的所有计划 实际上它就像一个
77ton of open tabs in your mind that keep cluttering your mental space.在你的脑海中,一吨的开放的标签 让你的心灵空间。
78So how do we actually close所以,我们如何真正关闭
79these tabs?这些标签?
80You might think that you have to make every decision, finish every task, complete every你可能认为你必须做出所有的决定 完成所有任务 完成所有
81project but no.工程但无。
82Researchers Baumeister and Mazekampo found something very interesting.研究人员鲍梅斯特和马泽坎波发现了非常有趣的东西.
83They found that他们发现
84your brain doesn't actually need every task to be done, it just needs to create a plan to resolve it.你的大脑并不需要完成所有的任务, 它只需要建立一个计划来解决它。
85When people in their study took an unfinished goal and they wrote down a specific plan of how they当人们在他们的研究中追求一个未完成的目标, 他们写下一个具体的计划 他们是如何
86would complete it, their intrusive thoughts, their overthinking, it stopped.完成它,他们的侵入性想法, 他们的过度思考,它停止。
87So the first exit from所以第一个离开
88the certainty loop is very simple.确定性循环很简单。
89So you sit down, you take pen and paper and you write down所以,你坐下,你拿 笔和纸,你写下来
90every single open tab that you have in your mind.你脑中每张公开的标签
91So every unmade decision, every plan,所以,每一个非决定,每一个计划,
92every dream you have, everything that you keep thinking about, also very minor things as well,你所有的梦想,你一直在想的一切, 还有非常小的事情,
93every random email that you forgot to reply to, every message you forgot to reply to每一封你忘了回复的随机邮件,每封你忘了回复的信息
94and just write it down from your mind and onto paper.把它写在你的脑海里和纸上
95Then for each one of them write a concrete然后,他们各写一个混凝土,
96next step of how you're going to resolve it and how you're going to turn a thought into an action.下一步你如何解决这个问题 如何把想法变成行动
