The Psychology of Thinking About Thinking & Why We Overthink Everything

from The ProBoh Show · host Rob Grams

In the first part of today’s show, we explored the idea of thinking about thinking and why learning how to think may be far more important than being told what to think. Today’s unpopular opinion was: overthinking is avoidance disguised as analysis. In the second half of the show, we asked 100 humans: name something people overthink about.
