Some folks think about everything all the time. They can't not. Others seem to be disinterested in thinking and avoid it. You?

    That's not how it works.  

    You don't think all the time when others do not think all the time.

    We have the capacity to tone down our thoughts.  You can have racing thoughts or you can have awareness.  

    I can not think and still be aware.  I don't have to have a dialogue in my head that runs my agenda.

    I watch my thoughts and when I get caught up in them, I start believing my dialogue.  That is unhealthy.

    It's far better to just observe and not judge or comment internally.  IT takes practice but it is a much more mentally healthy way to operate.  When I get caught up in my thoughts I know I am getting that way because I start feeling anxious and depressed.

    No. People just think differently about different things and issues. Most folks are thinking most of the time.
