Dear Ale:

I understood your first two lines and agree. When we are stressed- it is not the time to think! It is very important, when stressed to wait until calm before thinking. When stressed, it is like having lots of smoke blowing inside our brains, we can not see clearly. Our view is blocked by smoke. We have to wait for the smoke to dissipate before we can see, before we can think.

It is this simple: the more you think when stressed, the worse it is for you. It is just… not a good time to think. It is time to relax, take a walk, a hot (or cold) shower, do something distracting that is not harmful. Go back to thinking later.
