“Man is not worried by real problems so much as by his imagined anxieties about real problems.” -Epictetus
Self induced worry and anxiety will kill your mindset faster than the actual problem. Our brains don’t distinguish between being attacked by a tiger and being late on your bills. The stress response is the exact same for both situations.
Do not be your own worst enemy by overthinking a problem with made up possibilities. You will only create a bunch of fantasy scenarios, none of which will help you solve the problem.
Find the problem, fix the problem.
