How to say "Don't overthink it" in Japanese?
I thought it would be 「考えすぎないでください」, but Google Translate gives me 「考えすぎるしないでください」-- is this a proper grammatical construction? I realize Google Translate is not generally a good resource. Is there a better way to say it, or is one of these correct?

よろしくお願いします。
