How can I stop overthinking and take action more quickly?

The purpose of thinking is-
Decide.
Focus on solving and moving to the next problem.
‘No, that's stupid, what's relevant, what best can be done?’
When you are thinking about an event where someone mildly insulted you in front of a crowd, let's say they greeted everybody else and not you. I agree, It's sad and painful, it should trigger anger, and that's okay. But what happens next is unbelievable.
‘What am I doing?’

Wake yourself up.
The worst people do is to repeat the same thought again and again. It's like banging our head repeatedly on a wall in anger.
To burn every bit of life on this planet Earth? Or, to generate, nourish and sustain life and to give light. What if it suddenly goes out of control and rushes towards us?
What's it like to have an IQ of 140 to 170? Do people notice you're different?
Protect us.
Learn for the future.

Any external information is like a detail in a mathematics sum for you. It needs to be used well to identify the correct formula and steps to a solution.It's not written for continuous attention and thinking and dwelling on it.
You are connecting dots, but without any intelligence, simply creating random dots and joining them creating a complex spiral of thoughts leading to nowhere except chaos.

Overthinking gives you instant peace, you know why Because it stabilises and focuses your mind, it clears any confusion caused by positive options. It makes you forget your life and hop between thoughts.
Always wake up in the moment of overthinking and shouting stop in your mind.
Read patiently to clear your mind of baseless overthinking.
Always realise the purpose of thinking and don't deviate from it.
‘It's not a life or death threat, it's over, it's small.’
What is the use of thinking?
‘C'mon, get going, nothing happened.’
Why don't you focus on the ‘purpose of thinking’ more than merely thinking, that is, to find a solution or a path to a solution?
Let's discuss an example.
Have a core belief that, nothing is worth ruining even one precious moment of my life, nothing is the end of the world, and that peaceful existence is my ultimate goal like the entire nature.
What's the purpose?
To find a solution, an active solution.

The solution was simple, if that person is close and this is the first time, ask them. If they are a repeated offender and not so close, simply ditch them, and disown them. ‘Not my friend anymore. I won't pay attention to him.’ That's about it, you are free to enjoy peace of mind and life.
it's like scratching a painful wound and then regretting it later.
Sometimes, you wake up at night post a nightmare with real body reactions like chills, heart beating fast, sweating. But, was the dream real? Your mind only percieved it to be real due to lack of the thought of illusion, and same happens when people become anxious.

The moment you deviate. Correct it.
if you thought about something in a way, and there was nothing to do; no results, it must not be repeated, no more thinking about it. Reread this.

Why don't you simply realise that you are merely thinking and not be one with your thoughts and start living them?
You start thinking about what each one present there would be thinking, about similar events that happened throughout life, you try to explore that person's reasons and thoughts behind that action and zero in on the worst possible reason, while that fool simply forgot that they didn't greet you already. You question your esteem and identity, ‘he did that because I earn less, I am not worthy of respect. When my day comes, he will get it back with interest.’
