Search Inside Yourself The Unexpected Path to Achieving Success Happiness and World Peace
Maybe you'll get something nice when it comes. I got a book on how to improve myself and a foreign CD with 3 songs on it. The only thing I own that has a CD drive is my Xbox. That CD is never going to feel the tickle of a laser reading its soul.
EDIT:
For reference, these are what I got...

Search Inside Yourself is probably the best book for beginners.
There are several different pieces of advice you'll get when you ask this, you'll basically need to take all of them to some degree. There is no magic bullet, and you'll never be done.
I literally wrote this comment yesterday that you might want to check out...
But basically, I think you should really check out Meng Tan - he was one of the first software engineers at google (something like employee #100!), but he got out of that and basically went full time into teaching mindfulness. He wrote a book that I think is really worth a read and gave a talk about said book.
Anyways, I think that's a good place for you to find some answers...hopefully. Cheers!
Thanks for the list. I also recommend Search inside yourself. It explores meditation, emotional awareness, mindfulness, attention and unlearning. It's from a Google employee who created their mindfulness program.

We go through the same thing. I worry that I have a deadly disease all. the. time.
But recently I've found meditation/mindfulness and allowing myself to allow the thoughts to exist without feeding them helps. Its not fool-proof (yet) but its helping a little.
Don't wish cancer on yourself.
Also, enjoy the fact that magical thinking doesn't actually affect the outside world. You can do 1,000,000 compulsions to turn a pink rose blue, but it will still be pink.
I know I haven't quiet figured out how to safely ignore all of my thoughts, but I'm getting there. I'm certainly better than when I was a kid.
Check this book out for some great tips: https://www.amazon.com/Search-Inside-Yourself-Unexpected-Achieving/dp/0062116932/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1510090361&sr=8-1&keywords=chade+meng+tan
It gets better.
Break a leg!
Check out Search Inside Yourself by Chade Meng Tan. He was a Google engineer that went full time into running a mindfulness program at Google. It's one of my favorite books on mindfulness because it's super practical, and it includes a lot of great stuff on workplace mindfulness (and lots of great stuff on outside the workplace mindfulness). I remember a few sections on how he taught managers mindfulness and how it benefited everyone involved.

Hello, I had similar thoughts. I started my stoic journey at the beginning of this year with reading the Daily Stoic and writing the related journal. But I'm meditating since 3 years on a regular basis.
To me, the aspect of stoicism to always live in the present moment was already familiar. Before I discovered meditation I often felt anxious, uncertain and unfocused. This became better and better over time. I can't imagine a life without it anymore.
I'm not sure if it is feasible to quieten your mind by reading books and try to apply it logically into your daily life. It's hard to fight thinking with thinking. I believe that meditation or other kinds or mindfulness practices helps a lot to achieve a calm and present mind.
When I started meditation I was not particularly religous or spiritual. I discovered it through the book Search Inside Yourself which explains meditation for rational thinking beings. This totally changed my life.
Later I discovered Headspace, which became my favorite mediation app. I use it daily for almost 2 years now. Headspace provides guided, semi-guided and unguided meditations which focus on different aspects of life.
Currently I'm meditating every morning for about 15-30 min before I start journaling.
I'm about half way through this, pretty solid so far. It teaches you mindfulness techniques that is taught at Google.

This is more related to confidence:
From Search Inside Yourself.
> Earlier in the self-awareness chapter, we talked about how self-confidence can arise from deep understanding of our failure mode and recovery mode. In my engineer’s mind, I think of skillfulness in self-regulation as an upgrade to my recovery mechanism.
>By knowing exactly how a system recovers after failure, I can be confident in it even when it fails because I know the conditions in which the system can come back quickly enough that failure is inconsequential. If, in addition to that, I can upgrade the recovery mechanisms such that it can recover much faster and more cleanly (that is, causing fewer problems), then I can have even more confidence in it and can subject it to even more interesting and challenging environments. We can think of the practices in this chapter as upgrading our recovery mode.
At first I thought, maybe he’s in shock & hasn’t snapped out of it yet, but the more I read he just sounds like an asshole.
You need to put together a support system & stay organized. Reach out to anyone & everyone for help. Do not be shy about it, now isn’t the time to tip-toe or hesitate.
Some cancer planners I got:
it's the question that drives us. (The Matrix) - What do you want to achieve with your post and your video's?
I partially agree with what you write but most of all fail to see the part in which you ask your question.
I get the impression that you are seeking and think that you might be interested in the book from Meng-tan (a google engineer). The title is search inside yourself. It's available on Amazon for as little as 13:59 (link) http://www.amazon.com/Search-Inside-Yourself-Unexpected-Achieving/dp/0062116932
and also for free as a pdf from here:

Try to keep it interesting I reccomend practising these muscles for 5 seconds every day. Focus on one muscle.
You have multiple muscles in youre brain, The muscles im specialising in at the moment is the attention muscle - I used the book Search inside yourself> path to achivieing success, happiness and world peace. You also have a decision making muscle which you can practice with hard and decisive decision, every decision can be hard and decision no matter how small of an impact it has on your life. This muscle has helped me the most on my journey through starting a company and taking on music as my next goal. My psychiatrist also told me that that you can practice memory, with your memory muscle, just like you practice muscle memory
