How to Really Solve For The Worst-Case Scenario

from Embrace It All! Hosted by Angela Adams

Our brains like to be efficient, and it thinks that solving for every problem imaginable beforehand is very efficient and effective. Sometimes our brains jump immediately to the worst-case scenario and try to solve for that ahead of time, making us believe that if we don't spend time in all the "what if" questions, we won't be prepared.

On this episode I will explain what the thought distortion of catastrophizing is, how to recognizie it, and then will offer 4 tips on how to really solve for the worst-case scenario.
