Preparation Stress

How stressful is preparation for you?

How do you feel once the real thing kicks off?

How much do you expect?

How much do you need to be in control?

Preparing for something is often stressful,

more stressful than the actual thing we prepare for.

During preparation, we have control of the process.

During the event, we often all but can watch.

This illusion of control causes anxiety.

The acceptance of no control causes calm.
