Doubt Riding Shotgun: Learning to Recognize, Engage, and Love Your Doubt

by Dave Hill Jr.

I didn't think anyone would like this book. That's why I wrote it.

Truth is, everyone has self-doubt.

The key is HOW you work with your inner critic. In this book, you'll learn where doubt helps you and when doubt gets in the way.

In Doubt Riding Shotgun, I use the metaphor as a way of working with self-doubt more intelligently and with greater compassion. Come explore your self-doubt with me and I'll share how I've learned to work with doubt differently. I'll also share some of my client's stories.

It's time for a new relationship with self-doubt and I'd like to invite you on a road trip to ride along as I teach you a new perspective.

I loved the amiable tone of this book along with useful analogies and tangible exercises. More than that, Dave Hill's willingness to use his own doubt giving generous examples from his personal life add a credibility to this book that would, somewhat ironically, be missing otherwise. Rather than come from a place of lofty ideals and theories, Dave repeatedly gives evidence from his own experiences, supported by credible sources and extensive research to give the feeling that although your Doubt may be riding Shotgun, Dave is there in the car with you. A must have for anyone with Imposter Syndrome, plagued by, or even just experiencing moments of, self doubt. A book I know I'll be dipping in and out of again and again.

I really enjoyed Dave's book. A lot of the topics weren't new to me, but they were packaged up in a way that I haven't come across before. His views on re-framing doubt are perfect for increasing productivity and mental health both in business and life. Beyond just the framing, Dave brings a varies set of practical tools for using in daily life that build the mussel of re-framing doubt. His prose style is friendly, approachable, and never takes itself too seriously in a good way. This was a great and quick read and I can highly recommend it.
