“Over thinking kidnaps and kills dreams, only leaving us with regrets.“ No truer words were spoken, especially where I’m concerned.
I have always considered myself an over thinker. I always thought this was a trait that was ingrained in my DNA, as unescapable as my eye color, but after reading this book I am seeing my over thinking as an illness to which I might have found a cure.
The subject matter isn’t too heavy, though ironically I did catch myself overthinking, even when trying to read! The overall layout is pleasing, and it was very easy to go back and reference parts that speak to you. There are two sections at the end of each chapter: Key Takeaways and How to, that really help drive the main points of each chapter home, while also giving the reader applicable questions to ask themselves, helping to dig deeper, and find out more about their over thinking.
For a nonfiction I found the writing quite engaging, the use of relatable examples helping me to further engage, while also helping with my understanding of more complex topics and critical thinking. I am in the overthinking camp, and I found my self stopping and pondering myself, and a current situation I have been overthinking lately, and it has really helped me out off of the overthinking rollercoaster.
I was surprised how helpful this book was for me and what an enjoyable read it was!
