Don't Believe Everything You Think (English)

A nice read, Joseph Nguyen’s Don’t Believe Everything You Think is a refreshing and transformative guide to understanding the mind. Its core insight, “Thinking is the root cause of all suffering,” invites deeper awareness beyond habitual thoughts. My favorite line is, “Goals created by inspiration, not by desperation, is the real goal,” which beautifully captures the book’s empowering spirit. Nguyen blends simple psychology with practical wisdom, showing how overthinking fuels stress and how clarity emerges when we detach from mental noise. Concise, relatable, and actionable, it offers lasting guidance for personal growth, inner peace, and meaningful change—an impactful read for anyone seeking mental freedom.

Don’t Believe Everything You Think by Joseph Nguyen explains in a very simple and practical way how our thoughts create unnecessary stress and suffering.

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.

Wowwww....what a book, the way I respond to my mind has changed, I able to catch myself, when ever I start thinking. One day, I want meet the author and show my gratitude.. thank you sir, you are awesome.
