Are You Subscribing To The School Of “WHAT IF”

What If……..

What If …. I fail my exam

What If…. My partner rejects me

What If… My boss says no

What If… My fiends don’t like me

What If… I look like an idiot

Subscribing to the School Of WHAT IF is engaging in the What IF type of thinking. Often we spend a signifiant about of emotional and physical energy worrying about something that may or may not even happen. It is a complete drain on your resources and prevents you from focusing on what is important to you in the here and now

Here is a quick video on some quick re diversion techniques to UNSUBSCRIBE from the school of WHAT IF
