Does overthinking solve problem ? - pencil drawing

Overthinking has caused many health problems like insomnia, high blood pressure and even death. Overthinking happens subconsciously sometimes, so rather than it solving the problem it causes more harm.
When I was in Junior secondary school I was like 14 Years old . I was among the smartest in my class ,I had many competitors in my class. I went to HALLEL COLLEGE. my class as a whole was competitive. We were only 95 students in my class. I usually lead sometimes with the first position in academics, till I slacked backwards in one particular academic sesssion. I felt so bad and worried. I was thinking on how to take back that bad result to my parents. My parents really spent alot while training me in secondary school, they sacrificed alot to make sure I attended the best schools in Nigeria. I got 12th position that semester. I couldn't believe it, I started hating on my self because that wasn't what I expected to get. I was so disappointed in my self. I was scared of going back home because I was wondering how I would bring back home a bad result. My parents really sacrificed a lot for me to take me to one of the best schools so all I had to do to make them happy was to give them a good result to put a smile on there faces but I brought back home a bad academic result. I went back home and I was scolded by my mom it was so bad that I was grounded for like a week, I was even lucky my Dad traveled if not that would have been the worst.
My Dad wasn't just happy with me, though he called but he scolded me on the phone.
For the remaining 2 weeks I was in deep thoughts what I didn't realise was that the deed had been done. I can't go back and change my mistakes, the only thing I could do is to stand up dust my legs and move on to do better in the next semseter and to maintain my first position in class. Of course I overthinking didn't change anything but my thoughts towards making a better grade is what pushed me to strive much better the next semester. My mom had to call me and told me I should stop crying and overthinking. That I should just do better the next semseter. The next semseter I was the best in my class. I thank my mom for the words of encouragement she gave me then. Because her words touched me and made be preserve to do better the next semseter. If I had only thought about my mistakes and I had kept hating my self for my mistakes and But rather I had to think of how to aim higher and how to avoid the mistakes I made in the past semester.
The ways to stop overthinking are : you should be more optimistic you being pessimistic can ruin your mindset , Take hobbies and exercises to distract yourself, don't be too hard on yourself, Realise that there are things beyond your control, also know that there is always a chance to improve. My Mom usually tells me "Once there is life there is hope".
I was inspired to make this portrait pencil drawing of a boy putting his hand on his chin , which shows a young boy in thoughts or worry. It reminds me of my past experience about how my thoughts made me aim higher and how stopping overthinking helped me grow. Remember every art piece has a story.
