Of course, you should weigh the pros and cons before making a decision.
In reality, however, there are some decisions in which all of the consequences can’t be seen in advance. Because of this, an “overthinker” can also become a procrastinator! And sometimes procrastination can have a bigger downside than making the wrong decision.
Every decision involves some risk because we can’t always predict the results of what appears to be the correct choice. So, all you can do is weigh the pluses and minuses, decide upon the best possible alternative and move on.
