And then move through the day knowing that you have the tools to confront these problems.

Essentially, think about the worst possible what-if.

And then visualize yourself still dealing with that.

This is very different from being anxious all day.

This is called negative visualization.

It requires understanding that even if things do go wrong, it's not the end of the world.

You are able to confront issues as they arise.

You are able to, no matter what it is, you will be okay.

Push through it.

That's a very helpful practice.

You could literally try tomorrow.

Tomorrow, what's the worst thing that could happen in your life?

Imagine it.

Imagine yourself dealing with it.

You're good to go.

You have that armor on.

I honestly think about this a lot and I think about if it doesn't work, what's going to happen?

I feel like at the moment I've been facing a lot of fear of embarrassment, fear of cringe from doing parts of my job I probably should do more, posting online, that kind of stuff.

and really having that mentality of like truly what's the worst what if that could happen is life-changing because you just put everything into perspective what's the worst thing that could happen somebody could judge me somebody could be mad at me that's easy let's move on let's move forward another very simple stoicism practice is obviously gratitude and also generosity taking what you have extra of feeling grateful for it passing it forward

One practice I saw somebody talk about similar to this is basically making a list of all the things you truly do not need in your life and then also a list of the things you do need.
