If you ever wonder about how to think like an expert, the difference between your inner critic and the actor within, your ability to be heard, the value of being a musician, how to protect yourself from liars or how to overcome fears, you will find answers in this book.
Through each chapter there is a magic wand taking you into an area of life that you may have experienced yourself or it will be something new to consider. There is synthesis between the known and unknown, the seen and unseen, the mental and the physical, the desires of the heart and the aspirations of the spirit; and the overall theme of we are all just trying to make it from one day to the next with joy, peace, and happiness.
Joseph gives his own insights throughout the pages of what he believes are the backbone of our life experiences – both the great and the not so great. He leaves it up to the reader to discern what is true for them. You will find yourself wanting to explore more of each of his analysis of life’s nuggets, many of which we create ourselves through questions, desires for specific outcomes and the need to be heard.

Great ideas to build from.
Got this book to listen to on my commute and I can say it has some great points and ideas to build from to apply in my personal life. While I don’t agree with everything in the book it always helpful to try to understand another point of view on certain topics. Will be easy to revisit certain topics in its audio format as well while doing other tasks.

Science and wisdom distilled into life improvement mana
I love this book, and I intend to keep it close by for years to come. The author blends together his scientific expertise with well-earned wisdom, then wraps it all up in relatable anecdotes to offer his lessons on this tricky business of being human. Good advice for living life more successfully has seldom been so actionable or delivered with such eloquence and humor.

Explains good methods for changing your attitude and framing
This book is subtitled 60 Ways to be Healthy, Happy, and Hold off Harm. Lots of personal philosophy and great advice for not getting overwhelmed. With examples and scenarios for dealing with the difficult parts of life. Explains good methods for changing your attitude and framing to see things in a different light, and make confusion less so. Nice section on defining love, and self-evaluation. Ends with an excellent list of guidelines for being a genuine self and for living in the world. Recommended.

Lots of useful ideas to think about
I like that this book is challenging and makes me see things from a slightly different angle. I can imagine I will revisit it from time to time and take a new perspective as I move through different things in my life. I can see it helping me notice interactions a little bit differently, and to be patient with myself as I try to be better. I like that the chapters are short and manageable – lots of information with very little “fluff”.

Practical wisdom that’s fun to read
It’s as if your dad distilled his wisdom, experience, and lifelong research into useful everyday advice, and also made it fun to read. I’m sending this to my grandchildren.

A Book to Make Your Thinking Enjoyable
Carrabis has quite an impressive resume and a bio of amazing experiences from which to draw on in his writing. (Mathematician, educator, inventor, physicist, entrepreneur, author, to name only a few.) Here he distills all that into suggestions for living a healthier, more insightful, more satisfying life journey and offers warnings for avoiding catastrophic mistakes. The topics range over love, honesty, happiness, marriage, success and much more. Furthermore, he lists 73 principles one might aspire to for greater personal fulfillment and improved individual relationships. For example, “Own your history. Don’t be owned by it.”The subject of the book is actually what the title implies–about thinking. And that’s what it will entertainingly do for the reader–make him or her THINK. You do agree with this or that? Or disagree? Or want to take more time to ponder? How does what is presented compare or contrast with one’s own experiences? Do you now understand something about the world that puzzled you before?Even concerning chapters (which are pleasingly short and concise) that arrived at conclusions with which I disagreed, I found the material stimulating and refreshing. The work concludes with samples from the author’s other books, some truly intriguing fiction. I have no hesitation in giving That Think You Do high marks and an enthusiastic recommendation.

Joseph Carrabis tells honest and open stories that connect with the ups and downs of life that we can all relate to. The book combines different ideas from social sciences and business, creating an engaging blend of advice and opinions that encourage personal growth and gives people the real confidence to face life’s challenges.

Innovative and Eye Opening
That Th!nk You Do, by Joseph Carribis takes a look at human thought processes, explanations for why we do what we do, and techniques for dealing with lifeâs challenges. I have to admit that this book offered several âAha!â moments for me. Carribis offers unique insight into human behavior, and compassionate advice for handling the curve balls life throws at you. He is not a professional health expert, but an intelligent guy with some good ideas, which may or may not work for you, but probably worth a try.

5 Stars from me. This is an exceptional book that really can improve your wellbeing in terms of health, happiness and a reduction in the silent killer that is STRESS. I’ve read previous fiction by Joseph – most recently the excellent Augmented Man and was confident that this non-fiction practical guide to everyday life would be a special read. Joseph uses his vast scientific knowledge to bolster anecdotal experiences into an easy, readable guide to being human.It’s as though lessons from your favourite grand-parents have been whittled down and articulated warmly and with humour into 60 bite sized chunks of wisdom.I read once as a quick read, but find myself drawn back to chapters that resonated with me.Highly recommended.

That Th!nk You Do: 60 Ways to be happy, healthy and hold off harm has an intriguing title. It made me want to read it. This was generally an easy-to-read book. For me the most useful chapters were: Taking Back Your Life Parts 1 and 2, Unhealthy Comparisons, Eat Better or Be Stupid, Your Choice, Framing Decisions, Lohginess Begone! (Personal Inventories) and Finishing. But all of the chapters were interesting. I enjoyed the author sharing some of his own personal background.I felt that a couple of the chapters could have done with a little more explanation or examples, such as Four Rules for Thinking Like An Expert and Avoiding Self-Destructive Behaviors, but that might just be me.I really liked the appendix, Principles but would have liked a little more explanation of principles 10-12.Overall, itâs definitely worth reading and certainly makes you think about how to be happy and healthy.
