+<article>
+  <p>
+    Whenver I decide to add something to this website I always overthink on how
+    to add the thing. In general I just overthink how I will do everything. It
+    slows me down. Right now I am overthinking trying to think what to write
+    and how to format it. I always end up doing way less when what I planned
+    on doing. My partner overthinks a lot to. We overthink together.
+    Though we overthink in different ways. I always end up going fuck this
+    and throwing together a terrible mess while he just ends up giving up
+    from the start.
+    <br/><br/>
+    Overthinking is just as much of a power as it is a curse. It fuels my
+    ideas and thought process just as much as it slows me down. Its a quite
+    difficult weapon to use but still quite deadly indeed.
+    <br/><br/>
+    Next time you overthink do what I do: eat junk food.
