Don’t Attach Danger
So often what happens when we are feeling insecure is that we add fuel to the fire. If we took a moment, and asked ourselves some questions, it might help. For example, when you are afraid of the worst case scenario happening, ask yourself, “Is this true?” “Will this really happen?” Most cases, you will say to yourself “no.” From that place, you can start to calm down.
Think of what your best friend would tell you
Try to take yourself out of it--you are probably too emotional to think clearly. If you can call your best friend, do so. If not, take a few deep breaths, and ask yourself, “What would they do or say to me in this situation?” When this new insight, you can start to look at what is challenging you in a different light.
Give Yourself Credit
Whatever happens, know that you can handle it. You have a lot of experience, and what you don’t know, you can get others to weigh-in.
