10 lessons from Anne Bogel's book Don't Overthink It: Make Easier Decisions, Stop Second-Guessing, and Bring More Joy to Your Life:

1. Overthinking is a habit that can be broken. The first step is to recognize that you are an overthinker and to start paying attention to your thoughts. Once you are aware of your overthinking, you can start to challenge your negative thoughts and replace them with more positive ones.

2. Most decisions don't matter as much as you think. It's important to remember that there is no right or wrong answer to most decisions in life. You don't need to spend hours or days agonizing over every decision. Trust your gut and make a decision, even if it's not the perfect one.

3. Perfectionism is the enemy of joy. If you're always striving for perfection, you're setting yourself up for disappointment. Perfection is unattainable, and it will only lead to stress and anxiety. Let go of the need to be perfect and focus on enjoying the journey.

4. It's okay to make mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes. It's part of life. The important thing is to learn from your mistakes and move on. Don't dwell on the past or beat yourself up over your mistakes.

5. You can't control everything. There are many things in life that are out of your control. The weather, the economy, other people's behavior... you can't control any of these things. Instead of trying to control everything, focus on what you can control, such as your own thoughts, feelings, and actions.

6. Comparison is the thief of joy. Comparing yourself to others will only make you feel bad about yourself. Everyone is on their own unique journey. Focus on your own goals and accomplishments, and don't worry about what other people are doing.

7. Gratitude is a powerful tool. Taking the time to appreciate the good things in your life can help to reduce overthinking and anxiety. Make a habit of writing down three things you are grateful for each day.

8. It's important to have a life outside of work. Don't let your job consume your life. Make time for hobbies, friends, and family. Having a balanced life will help you to be happier and less stressed.

9. Taking breaks is essential. It's important to take breaks from work and other commitments to recharge and relax. Get up and move around every 20-30 minutes, and take a longer break for lunch.

10. Sleep is essential for mental and physical health. Aim for 7-8 hours of sleep each night. When you are well-rested, you are better able to handle stress and make decisions.

If you are an overthinker, this book is for you. Bogel provides practical advice and exercises to help you break the habit of overthinking and live a more joyful life
