I intentionally consider the "realistic" worst case scenario. By arguing "very unlikely" to the worst thoughts, I can instead plan around more plausible bad outcomes. This let's me feel more prepared and in control of the situation.

Id say... multilingual people might have some difficulty....
But also, some idiots don't know how to write even their main language **Comme moi **

I like it better the way it is... What if I hadn't failed? What if??

I wish that that seemed true. I’ll forget a lot of ‘what if’s before I forget the pain and embarrassment from some failures. They haunt for years.
And the whole thinking about best/worst case never really seems to help me much either. Like the reasonable worst case scenario always seems so much worse than the reasonable best case. It seems quite infeasible to completely make several friendships or one’s reputation, but it’s easy to obliterate it all at once. Sure rock climbing might be fun in the moment and conquering one’s fear validating, but you could almost just as easily cripple yourself for life.
Life and the world is always stacked so much against anyone, so seeing that to me isn’t a fun thing

Because it becomes physically painful and mentally exhausting at a certain point, causing issues including things like chipping teeth.
And, because it also so often means little anyway.
The pain of “what if” is a hard one, but so is that of failure. The “what if” also doesn’t haunt me quite the same ways that all my failures do.
For people who don’t have like diagnosable anxiety I’m sure this quote is fine though

I'm having a panic attack and when i saw "fear and anxiety" i got excited that the rest of this would help. But it did not. not at all.

If everyone went into a conversation with the intention to listen rather than talk the world would be a bit different I think.

This is so goddamn important in so many situations.
First and foremost, you hardly ever have to worry about apologizing for or explaining something you haven't said.
While silence can be misinterpreted, it is easier to explain than poorly chosen words.
In some cases, silence can literally change your life. Not speaking to cops, not rising to the bait of some wannabe tough guy in public, not spouting off to your spouse/partner...all of these are situations in which just a few poorly chosen words can have a life altering impact.
Take time to listen and ponder.
