Note something that went better than expected

Recall one thing this week that turned out better than you feared.

Why it helps

We often predict worse outcomes than occur. Recording good surprises may soften future worry.

How to do it

1. Think of something you feared.
2. Write what actually happened.
3. Note one thing it tells you about worry.

Make it easier

Just recall it silently.

Make it harder

Keep a running list for a month.
