“We Suffer more in imagination than in reality.” 🔥
- Seneca, Roman Stoic philosopher.
Two things I say to myself when I notice anxious feelings arise are: 💬
“We do not borrow suffering.”
“Physically I am okay.”Oftentimes, I find myself suffering “imagined” troubles anticipating them before they come (if even at all). 💭
Additionally, I find myself sometimes focusing on the worst that can happen instead of the best that can happen.
I have also found that these feelings typically come when I am “overthinking” in my head about:
Lacking confidence in my ability.
Not having my priorities straight.I use this as a cue to remind myself that: 😊
I am not physically in pain right now and I’m okay so everything is okay and will always be okay.👍🏽
I immediately simplify tasks in my mind to one step at a time. Making one decision the best version of myself would make. 💯
I immediately believe in my abilities based upon hard things I have overcome before because this is who I am. ☺️My Links: https://hoo.be/ConnorTrott
