"What's The Worst Thing That Could Happen?" (Powerful Reframe) - Book Bits - #328

I missed my flight to Vegas a month ago (May 4) and in reading from Dale Carnegie's book "How to Stop Worrying and Start Living" I stumbled upon a very useful framework when it comes to worst case scenarios.I had thought that thinking of the worst case scenario would invite that outcome more into my life but the opposite is actually true.When you bring that to your mind early it helps you get familiar from it, and then from there you have a clear understanding of what you do NOT want.Here's the framework as talked in the book:1. Ask yourself, "What is the worst that could possibly happen?"2. Prepare to accept it if you have to3. Calmly proceed and improve on the worst The truth is... that the worst thing that could happen with me missing  my flight is that I lose a day in Vegas and a couple hundred dollars of my parent's money.I'm still full of joy inside and as my mom told me later in the car when she picked me up, "There are way bigger problems in life than money, like health problems, etc. etc. money really isn't that big of a deal in comparison." This reframe can help reorient your brain towards action when that is really hard to do Other I Missed My Flight to Vegas Episode - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/i-missed-my-flight-to-vegas-the-greatest-thing-that/id1478505549?i=1000612190505 Book - "How to Stop Worrying and Stop Living" - Dale Carnegiehttps://www.amazon.com/How-Stop-Worrying-Start-Living-ebook/dp/B003WIYCCY/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=how+to+stop+worry+and+start+living&qid=1685967417&sr=8-1 Other Book Bits:321 - "...Until Not One Trace of Hope Remained" - Book Bitshttps://open.spotify.com/episode/5skMAHzg9QSJD1HY06iYrT?si=k-cIJooVQ1y0qwwppgR7MA310 - "Formula to Help Your Thoughts Grow" - Book Bitshttps://open.spotify.com/episode/5vq8ws9ZyqXOW1M9fvmIIE?si=zk5D_F3NQ5aAwd_hf6NMDQMore From Me:My Medium: https://medium.com/@DallinsYieldCommunity on Discord: https://discord.com/invite/KR5cdstcEBMy Twitter: https://twitter.com/dallinsyieldQuotes:"Accept a loss in a battle, you can accept a win in a war."Support the show
