Accept things as they are and focus on just the facts and the first impressions.
Don’t think of what can go wrong and avoid all possible interpretations in your mind. Sometimes overthinking can be counterproductive. If you know that you are overthinking, then busy yourself with some work.
Moreover, stop analyzing your past and don’t generalize because of your bad experiences. Just because things didn’t work the last time doesn’t mean they won’t this time.
