Usually, I had a harder time deciding at night after putting the kids to sleep.

I will decide in the morning after a good night's sleep.

I think that way, we will be able to make a better decision.

In important but stressful situations such as job interviews or exams, people react in two ways. Some think, "It will be fine, I can do it," while others worry about all the possible obstacles and failures, imagining the worst-case scenarios.

Even if they muster up the courage to start, they tend to feel only stress and anxiety rather than enjoyment and learning. How can we change this tendency?
