The disaster report
First, Define the Worry Situation Clearly. What exactly are you worried about? Very often, when you take the time to be completely clear about the worry situation, a way to resolve the situation becomes immediately evident.
Second, Identify the Worst Possible Thing That Could Possibly Happen if this worry situation were to take place.
Third, Resolve to Accept the Worst Possible Outcome, should it occur. Say to yourself, “Well, if that happens, it won’t kill me. I will find a way to get along.”
Fourth, Begin Immediately to Improve on the Worst. Take every step that you possibly can to make sure that the worst possible outcome does not occur.
