Quit Overthinking Things

Ethan Kross, professor of psychology at the University of Michigan,
has spent years studying how people talk to themselves and the
effect that this "chatter" has on our performance. From
professional athletes to top students and senior executives, even
the most talented among us sometimes struggle to quiet the voices
in our heads. And Kross says that, while some self-talk can help
us, it's often unproductive. He offers tips and tricks to break out
of negative thinking and get back on track, especially at work.
He's the author of the book “Chatter: The Voice in Our Head, Why it
Matters, and How to Harness It.”
