I think about the worst case scenario and if it's survivable, I try to relax.

Thats basically stocism (which you probably already know).

  • Imagining worst-case scenarios to appreciate current blessings and prepare for challenges, fostering gratitude and mental toughness
  • Focus on controllable aspects like your actions and thoughts, and accept that there are uncontrollable ones to reduce stress
  • Focus on living in the present, free from past regrets or future worries
  • Prioritize virtues like wisdom and courage over material wealth or status
  • Embrace change as a natural part of life, fostering resilience and adaptability

I'm a big fan of Stoicism.

When I would find myself getting stressed over an exam or project at work, I would stop and think "One way or another, you'll still be here afterwards and the consequences will be whatever they will be, but they'll be manageable."
