1. Analyze the situation and figure out what is the worst that could possibly happen as a result of this failure.
2. Prepare yourself mentally to accept the worst-if necessary.
3. Focus on the present: Don’t dwell on the past or the future. Focus on what you can control
4. Try to improve upon the worst scenario you have already mentally agreed to accept.

Try to avoid getting nervous about the future. Just live each day until bedtime.

Only think about and focus on the current day. We cannot go back to the past or see the future. The future is today.
