Absolutely.  Thinking too much is a recipe for misery.

Having said that I don't think it is something one can control all that
much.  Some people are by nature prone to reflect on things a lot and if
one is like that - and probably most of the people on this list are -
there isn't a lot you can do about it.  I always think Wittgenstein's
idea of Philosophy as a disease he was trying to cure himself and other
people of is very true.
