By the time 5 PM arrives, most of those worries will seem smaller or irrelevant. You’ve taught your brain that not every thought needs immediate attention. 5. Change Your Environment to Change Your Thoughts Overthinking thrives in stillness and isolation. Bogel emphasizes that physical action interrupts mental loops. Go for a walk. Wash dishes. Rearrange a shelf. Movement shifts your brain from default mode (rumination) to task-positive mode (action).

You don’t need to think more. You need to trust yourself more. And that’s exactly what this book helps you practice.

For your next low-stakes decision, tell yourself: “I’m not looking for the best. I’m looking for fine.” Then move on. 4. Schedule Your Worry (Yes, Really) This sounds counterintuitive, but it works. Bogel suggests giving your overthinking a designated time and place (e.g., 5–5:20 PM in a notebook).

It’s about freeing up your mental energy for the things that actually matter: connection, creativity, rest, and decisions that align with your values.

Set a “decision deadline” for small things (e.g., 5 minutes to choose a gift, 10 minutes to draft a tricky email). When the timer ends, choose. Bogel argues that most choices don’t need more time—they need less. 3. Use the “Good Enough” Rule (a.k.a. Satisficing) Perfectionism is overthinking’s best friend.
