what do you call a person who overthinks, alot and ends up connecting dots, and is good at figuring things out

1 answer

A person who tends to overthink and connects dots well might be described as a "deep thinker" or a "reflective thinker." If they excel at analyzing situations and problem-solving, they could also be referred to as an "analytical thinker" or a "critical thinker." In some contexts, terms like "ruminator" may apply, though this can have a more negative connotation focused on being stuck in overthinking without resolution. Ultimately, the exact term may depend on the specific context and the traits you want to emphasize.
