Comment on It helps to put your fears into perspective

In line with this, thinking through how you’ll deal with the bad outcome can help you deal with them
For example
Me organising an event and only 1 person turning up (this would have stopped me in the past)
- being able to get to know that person better
- not ordering the food until after the event starts
- ending early, or having an alternative plan that works for smaller groups
Me failing a class and having to repeat it next year
- planning what the schedule will look like, or how that would shift your course planning
It doesn’t bounce around in your head as much afterwards, because you’ve “solved” the problem
