Thank you @jdkennedy I appreciate your inspiring input toward what I have expressed. I will add though, that much like you, I can also be very anxious about a lot of things and worry myself unnecessarily - so in many instances, my mindset is a conscious "choice" rather than a natural response. Believe it or not - practice that often enough (whether you are convinced or not at the time) and mark my words, you will feel your emotional and thought reactions beginning to shift.

But - also, there is also nothing wrong with how you process things either. We are all who we are for good reason and our unique trait combinations ALL have their benefits!
