If you know that what's going to cause you anxiety is getting out the door in the morning, that you're all rushing to get out the door, nobody's synchronized, you know, then I think it gives you the opportunity to think through what a reasonable timetable is or, you know, a schedule so not everybody's stuck in the bathroom or the kitchen or, you know, the things that are going to make you kind of crazy and more anxious, I think you can sort through.
I think the other thing is, I'm not quite sure how to say this, but I think
there are things that are always going to make us anxious.
And I think the dialing back and looking at what you can fix and what you can help and what you can't and what's just going to be an anxiety provoker for you is really helpful.
I make lists, right?
A worry list of things that I'm worried about that I can control, things that I'm worried about that I might be able to control eventually, and things that I'm just never going to be able to control and I'm going to worry about.
Just having it in front of me helps me a lot.
Because I can sort through what are mine?
What's mine to own?
What's mine I need to work through with my kids?
And what's mine that's just something I know I'm never going to be able to stop worrying about?
That's helpful to me.
And I don't know how helpful that would be for other people.
I just think recognizing that this is not the rest of your life, right?
This is a moment of your entire life.
And it's not like a test.
that you're going to fail or you're going to succeed at, that you always have new opportunities.
You always have new chances.
If something goes badly, it goes badly and you can move forward and try again.
And I think those things are so hard as parents for us to keep in mind that our anxiety is like, we just have to get it right.
