Get your mind unstuck.

It can be challenging to be mindful when you're trapped in your own head. Overthinking comes in many forms—overanalysis, perfectionism, worry, rumination—and each of these can be harmful to your productivity and well-being at work.

This book will teach you how to understand what type of overthinking you are experiencing, realize when you're cycling in a mental loop, and break free so that you can trust your gut, make a decision, and move forward with confidence.

This volume includes the work of Alice Boyes, Melody Wilding, Thomas H. Davenport, and Sian Beilock.

HOW TO BE HUMAN AT WORK. The HBR Emotional Intelligence series features smart, essential reading on the human side of professional life from the pages of Harvard Business Review. Each book in the series offers proven research showing how our emotions impact our work lives, practical advice for managing difficult people and situations, and inspiring essays on what it means to tend to our emotional well-being at work. Uplifting and practical, these books describe the social skills that are critical for ambitious professionals to master.
