Don’t Overthink It: Avoid Your Negative Thought Patterns Book Review

Overthinking is now a severe problem for so many teenagers. Not only teenagers but also many adults. Overthinking causes many mental diseases. Such as depression, anxiety, etc.

Overthinking can suffer a person in all aspects of life. It makes life hell. It is a thinking habit a person has grown for years without knowing.

And his subconscious mind has become very used to it. It is not a good situation. Successful people and happy people do not allow overthinking. Overthinking can cause some physical diseases too. Such as insomnia. People in a dangerous stage of overthinking can’t sleep well at night.

I think it is not so hard to get out of it. Just one sentence is enough to get out of overthinking. That is, one day, it will come all over. One day we will die. Reminding this every time can stop overthinking. This works for me, but I don’t know if it will work for you too.

If it doesn’t, I have a book for you. The book I have today on the topic of overthinking is ‘Don’t Overthink It: Make Easier Decisions, Stop Second-Guessing, and Bring More Joy to Your Life.’ Anne Bogel wrote this book. Scroll down to learn more about this book.

Someone gave a 4-star rating in good reads of this book and said, “This book is written in such a simple way to make sure that you don’t overthink! The concepts are simple and easy to implement in your daily life.

Small steps make it a bit different. I loved the author’s examples to demonstrate concepts of successes and failures! Don’t overthink it…and read the book! :)”

And the one who gave 1star on good reads and said,’ Full disclosure: I only read about 56% of this book, and then I couldn’t do it anymore. I will sound super snarky, and I’m not too fond of that, but this is the only way I can think of describing why I’m not too fond of this book.

I can see this book appealing to women who have problems like, “Oh no! We have an extra 18 hours in New York. What shall we do?” Or “Oops, we opened an 80-dollar bottle of wine by accident!” Yes, these were both in the book.

I didn’t feel like this transferred over to my life. There were too little concrete info and too many anecdotes. All I could think was how I wish I had her problems to overthink.”

The thing is, not everyone will like the way of writing. You’ll see a mix of reviews from people around the world. People who can relate their life to the book mainly like the book. And people who can not relate and mostly do not like much.
