2. Identify your fears

Are you predicting a catastrophic outcome? Do you doubt your ability to cope with an undesirable outcome?

Usually, the worst case scenario isn't as horrible as you might imagine. But quite often, people are so busying thinking, "This is going to be a disaster," that they don't take the time to ask themselves, "What would I do if the worst case scenario came true?"

Perhaps you’d struggle for a while, but there’s a good chance you’re mentally strong enough to bounce back. Acknowledging that you can handle the worst case scenario can help you put your energy into more productive places.
