Don't Believe Everything You Think (Expanded Edition) : Why Your Thinking Is the Beginning & End of Suffering (English)

Don’t Believe Everything You Think is a simple but thought-provoking book. What I liked most is how the author explains the connection between our thoughts, emotions, and suffering in an easy-to-understand way. The book made me realize that not every thought that comes into our mind deserves to be believed or acted upon. It is especially useful for people who tend to overthink and get caught up in their own thoughts. Some of the concepts may feel familiar, but the book presents them in a way that encourages self-reflection. It’s a short, easy read, but there are ideas worth coming back to again and again. Overall, a good book for anyone interested in understanding their thoughts and developing a calmer perspective on life.

A simple yet thought-provoking book that makes you question your own thoughts and reactions. The idea that our suffering often comes from the meaning we give to our thoughts really stayed with me. Easy to read, practical, and definitely worth reading if you want to understand your mind better.

Really enjoyed the core message of this book—it is highly relevant for anyone dealing with anxiety or a busy mind. The seller did a fantastic job with fast shipping and secure packaging. Docking one star only because the book's content gets a little repetitive, but otherwise a solid 4-star experience all around.

This is a book which has very different perspective to life and it actuals helps individuals to change their thinking and not believe anything blindly too soon.

What a wonderful book to read. Language is so simple, content is simple, message is great. Everyone should read it once.

Discovering Joseph Nguyen's book helped me understand the vital difference between thoughts and the thinking process, realizing that my own mind and negative thinking were the root causes of my suffering rather than the universe. By releasing my questions of "why me?" and letting go of that distress, my faith in the universe has been fully restored, and I now trust my intuition to guide me forward, leaving me feeling positive, confident, and deeply grateful to the author.

I picked up Don’t Believe Everything You Think hoping it would help with the kind of deep, overwhelming anxiety that I call the “red zone.” In my personal scale, the green zone is normal life stress, the yellow zone is manageable anxiety that improves with positive effort, and the red zone is where thoughts feel uncontrollable and everything feels heavy. For someone like me currently in the red zone, this book offered some help, but not as much as I expected. The author repeatedly emphasizes one main idea: you are responsible for how you think, and you can stop negative thoughts by identifying a reason and shifting your focus. While this may work for people in the green or yellow zones, it starts to feel repetitive if you’re already overwhelmed and trying everything—from medication to meditation. There are a few story-based paragraphs that were okay but not very inspiring or deeply impactful. So far, I have read about 107 pages (12 chapters), and the message keeps repeating without offering deeper tools for someone who is struggling intensely. Overall, I would rate this book 3 out of 5. It may help readers with mild to moderate anxiety, but for those dealing with severe or “red-zone” levels, it might feel too repetitive and not practical enough.

It's an amazing book to tackle the daily sufferings we go through in our life.It just changed the way of thinking of mine.After going through this book you will able to know that the thinking is the root cause of suffering

I began to experience amazing emotions and feelings! And my mind is becoming clearer and not so clouded. The book is giving great advice and I am glad I decided to follow it. The advice is practical. It is not just theory and can be followed. The book is written in fluent language. It is easy to read and digest. I definitely recommend this book!

Really enjoyed reading it,I usually think a lot and after reading this it really made me realise that our problems really do come from our thoughts .its a good one I would definitely recommend

I really enjoyed Don’t Believe Everything You Think. It’s an easy and straightforward read, but it gives you a lot to think about. I especially liked the way Joseph Nguyen explains overthinking and how easily we can get caught up in our own thoughts and create unnecessary stress for ourselves. The book helped remind me that just because I have a thought doesn’t mean I have to believe it or let it control how I feel. I found the message comforting and surprisingly helpful in everyday life. It’s a short book, but there are definitely ideas I’ll come back to again. I would recommend it to anyone who tends to overthink, worry, or simply wants to feel a little more at peace with their own thoughts.

A special book that touched my heart, it’s simple truths were just that, truth. Enjoy the journey of the adventure we call life.
