Don't Overthink It: Make Easier Decisions, Stop Second-Guessing, and Bring More Joy to Your Life by Anne Bogel
4.0
This reminded me very much of The Lazy Genius Way. Similar principles with some differences. Both are worth reading. Bogel's book focuses a bit more on the anxiety we feel when making decisions and how to mitigate that. The Lazy Genius principles of "Decide Once" and "Name What Matters" can be incorporated here and both certainly discuss value systems and remind us that there is not a one-size-fits-all approach to decision making.
Bogel's book was comforting in that I realized I'm not alone in my overthinking and I don't need to stay stuck there (there is a way out!). From whether or not to buy those flowers to figuring out if you say yes to that commitment, Bogel is a gentle companion helping to guide us so we don't live our lives with FOMO or coming up against decision fatigue day in and day out. Nothing earth-shattering in here, and some repetition from other books I've read, but I like these reminders and hearing the slight differences in how principles are applied. A short read/listen (I listened to the audiobook) and worth your time for sure.
