Overthinking is something we can all admit to, especially in times of high stress. There are some people who are constantly overthinking, which many believe to be negative. However, there are many benefits to overthinking you may not have expected.

1. You are prepared for anything.

You plan things to the minor details and are ready for any situation that may arise. Should anything go wrong, you know how to handle and diffuse the problem.

2. You are the best decision maker.

You weigh all the pros and cons and know every possible outcome of each decision, so your friends all come to you for advice.

3. You're great at time management.

You don't worry about forgetting deadlines or not having enough time to do all of your work and go out. Rather, you plan your time meticulously so you have enough time to do everything you need to. Plus, time to spare.

4. You're a great spender.

As a good decision maker, contemplating everything, you also rethink your purchases and don’t quickly make purchases. This means you never leave the store with things you don’t need.

5. You are the best friend.

You are the “mom” of the group, constantly protecting and taking care of your friends, and providing them with everything. Whether they are sick or upset, you are always worried about their well-being.
