If The Glass Isn't Have Full Don't Drink It

The human mind is a terribly power thing. Once it gets going there is almost no shutting it down. This is especially so when something somehow sinks in there that plays with our feelings. The mind and our feelings are so extremely connected that one is almost never without the other. It's hard to not draw a emotional connection in some way to the things we think about. For the things we think about are usually things that are important to us.

What I find most people do is offer themselves "what if scenarios" that make the mind believe possible outcomes to situations that can be far-fetched or unrealistic. Though, these "what if scenarios" also do offer a lot to process. In normal situations they make a lot of sense and often lead us upon the correct course. I think that the negative side of the "what ifs" dwell in all of us. We think about them even when we shouldn't. We think about them because people as a whole are naturally pessimistic. We do this at all times in our lives depending on what I'd going on at any particular time.

So, my advice with this mental dilemma is this. Realize that you are thinking outlandishly, take ahold of the facts and avoid the pessimistic attitude. You do know what is probably the truth or reality of most situations and hold a firm grasp on them.
