The “What If” Trap: Free Your Mind From Overthinking

Rate this book
Transform Overthinking into Confidence and Clarity with The 'What If' Trap.
You overthink because you have not yet taught your nervous system how to
feel safe, how to feel safe in your body, safe in your decisions, and safe in
the natural flow of life.

Clear thinking emerges from understanding how your mind works under pressure.
The “What If” Trap offers a practical approach to breaking free from mental spinning and
finding solid ground in your decision-making. Drawing from real experience with
leaders, professionals, and individuals facing similar challenges, this book provides tools
that work in the real world.
Your mind holds more wisdom than you realize. And when you clue yourself in on the
workings of its ways, you can turn overthinking into clear, confident action.

Important message delivered perfectly

Excellent book with the perfect title. I think we all find ourselves in this trap and many times without even realizing it because we are on autopilot. The concepts here work for work and personal relationships. I took a lot away from this and will definitely read it again.
