You spent real energy on scenes that never played out.

You spent real energy on scenes that never played out. Research from Penn State found that 91% of worries never materialize — and the ones that do tend to be far less severe than predicted. Here is a 5-day worry tracker you can start tonight: 1. Before bed, write down your top 3 worries in a notes app 2. Rate each worry 1-10 for "how certain am I this will happen" 3. After 5 days, review — circle anything that actually occurred 4. Notice the gap between certainty and reality 5. Use that gap as evidence next time your brain starts scripting The pattern becomes undeniable fast. Your prediction engine is loud, not accurate. What was your biggest worry from last Monday?
