You know that feeling when something bad almost happens but somehow everything turns out fine? Instead of just being relieved and grateful, I sometimes get stuck thinking about how bad it could have been. I start imagining all the worst-case scenarios even though nothing actually went wrong and end up stressing myself out over something that didnāt even happen. Is it just me, or does anyone else do this too?

first step is to recognize it, donāt drive looking through the rearview mirror, keep your eyes ahead.

i just realize that āi should haveā or āi could haveā is just magical thinking that has no relevance to where i am now and headed forward in time. those statements have no value, i cannot go back and rerun the experiment, so i can just stop obsessing on them.
