CALCULATE THE RISK – Worry is designed to highlight the potential risk of something bad happening if you keep doing what you are doing. It appears that every self-help guru wants you to relentlessly think positively, but when calculating risk, it is actually better to address potential worst case scenarios than try and avoid them with a smile on your face. If bad things are unlikely to happen, you can dump the worry early on and if they are likely, at least you’ll be prepared. THINK - what is the worst thing that can happen and how likely is it? You will find that most worries fall into the ‘not a lot / unlikely’ category. #TherapyThursday
