Theories, like many things in life, have a dose response curve to the

much either doesn't do the job or it creates contraindications.
My frustration with over thinking something (constantly analyzing without
specific and consistent behavioral changes ) happens a lot with this list.
Glen:
There is a big difference between a theory and thinking. I suspect you
meant to say there needs to be a balance between THINKING and DOING. Both
of these activities benefit from strong, healthy theories. In practice,
they may even be pointless at best and impossible at worst in the absence
of a coherent theory. As for people confusing theory with reality,
well...that's another issue.
