It's common to wonder sometimes, "What if something goes wrong?" It's important to recognize(识别) that thought and manage it so that you don't lose yourselves in the worry.

Worrying about the future is a normal part of life. From time to time, everyone wonders what would happen if something doesn't go to plan: "What if I make a mistake?" or "What if everyone laughs at me?". These "what-if" worries focus on a bad result. Spending a lot of time "what if-ing" makes you not want to do things, and it can make it hard to pay attention to what you're doing or what people are saying.

There are different ways you can help yourself. Expert Angela McMillan suggests creating an "IF / THEN " plan. "For example," she says, "IF you have to stand up in front of the class, THEN you will take three deep breaths and remind yourself you have prepared and you're OK. Or IF the social event is really noisy and you don't know what to do, THEN you can step outside for a few minutes. " You can also know what you're worrying about and then challenge it. Try thinking about what could go right. For example, instead of thinking "What if I miss the ball when I try to kick it?" You should ask "What if I score a goal? "

McMillan points out that most worries never happen. "Remember they are thoughts and the bravest thing we can do is to not let the worry win," she says. Try to focus your attention on what you're doing. That could be the book you're reading, the TV show you're watching or the conversation you're having. Getting angry with yourself will make you feel worse, so be kind to yourself. Think about how you would talk to your classmate who is feeling worried-and then speak to yourself in that same way.
