Facing Fear - Deepstash

Facing Fear

Some people are obsessed with the future. They are constantly anxious about what will happen. This arises from self-doubt and procrastination. Solving one solves the other after all.

When you are in a state of fear and anxiety stressing over the future, you should take a deep breath and try to analyze the exact thing that you are afraid of. What decisions can you make to control the outcome? Who controls the outcome? Is there anything you can do about it? If yes, well, just do it. If not, just wait and see what will happen.
