Preparing For Trouble Ahead

What’s worse — expecting trouble or the trouble actually happening?

Well, I can tell you which one causes more concern.

Anticipating what we fear that is likely never going to happen.

When we become obsessed with what is looming over us, we have already paid the price.

99% of that which we worry about never happens.

And of the 1% that does, it rarely happens the way we feared it would.

When you anticipate trouble ahead, try this:

  1. Become obsessed not with the thought of what you fear is going to happen but with the reminder that 99% of the time what you fear will likely never happen.
  2. Become lost in the present – distracted in a good way by what you are doing now, not by that bad thing you fear is about to happen next.
  3. Find peace in knowing that whatever comes to be, you have the skills to deal with it.
