Think Tested vs Expanded: Insights For Book Lovers

We recently picked up both the original and the Expanded Edition of Don't Believe Everything You Think, written by Joseph Nguyen, and found ourselves fascinated by the differences. The Expanded Version goes beyond the proven insights of the first, adding practical exercises and deeper reflections on how thought shapes pain or liberation. While the original served as a solid introduction, the expanded edition feels like a graduation gift—more comprehensive, yet just as accessible. We appreciate its structure, which bridges philosophy and actionable advice seamlessly. If you’ve enjoyed the foundational message of the first book, the Expanded Edition offers a richer, more nuanced experience. For us, it’s a testament to how thoughtful revision can elevate a gem of a read without losing its core brilliance.
