that's true, if you observe your thoughts from an outsider's perspective such as during meditation, you will notice your thoughts are often irrational, random, and can be false.

that's why it's important not to believe and identify with your thoughts so much which and instead just let them pass by.

Over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind
Withering my intuition, missing opportunities and I must
Feed my will to feel my moment drawing way outside the lines

Eckart Tolle has a few books almost entirely devoted to this subject.  'The Power of Now'
I found the books quite enlightening and a very easy read.

Our minds are tools to solve problems, just as our hands are tools to hold and manipulate objects.  Do not fool yourself into thinking that your thoughts are who you are.  You have been domesticated just as a cat or dog has.  Taught what to think, how to feel, what is right or wrong.  Scary shit, but better to know you've been duped than believe that you are truly free.
