541: The Surprising Solution to Overthinking with Jon Acuff (an Encore Presentation of Episode 365)
Today’s guest makes his fourth visit to the podcast. That puts him in very elite company. Jon Acuff joins Jeff Goins and Todd Henry as the only guests to have appeared as many times. If you think that must mean I like his work, well, you’d be right. Previous books I’ve featured from Jon include: Start, Do Over, and Finish, all three excellent books, and Soundtracks is no exception. Jon says that “Overthinking is when what you think gets in the way of what you want.” Jon says the solution to overthinking isn’t to stop thinking but to change the soundtrack to something better – more positive, more encouraging, and ultimately, more productive. Once we learn how to choose our soundtracks, thoughts become our best friend, propelling us toward our goals. Get the book that Seth Godin calls, “A simple, powerful, and generous book, one that you’ll remember every day for the rest of your life.” Soundtracks: The Surprising Solution to Overthinking, is out now!
