To read well, pay attention to the text as closely as possible (for the details)
You must be detail-oriented to do anything well
Devil is in the details, OP
You know what that saying means
Here’s the clincher:
The only way to improve you’re life, is to do things as well as possible, which requires your full attention
You have no choice
God willed it
You must forget those negative thoughts because your full attention is required so that you can do things well and improve your life

The Battlefield of the Mind by Joyce Meyer. It's a Christian book.

Plato and Aristotle. They always bring me joy since their troubles are so far away and it feels so sincere. I’d also apply this to the Anglo- germanics of the Enlightenment. The French seem too caught up on woe is me.

Not a particular book, though I'm sure there is a book about it, but I recommend mindfulness meditation. It helps you to start focusing on the present situation and taking in the immediate environmental rather than thinking about the future, ruminating, or thinking about other things not in your present environment in front of you.
I have ADD and concomitant anxiety but it helps to calm racing thoughts.
