Most of our anxiety comes not from what actually happens, but from what we imagine might happen in an uncertain future. In this solo episode with Luke Chao, he speaks about how to face the future with clarity:

• The things you’re stressed about today will likely be handled by your future self with the maturity and experience of that age.
• Life’s uncertainties are like driving on a winding road; you don’t need to imagine threats, just trust your senses and handle what comes.
• Anxiety often focuses on hypothetical threats rather than the actual reality, which is usually safe and manageable.
• Throughout life, you’ve handled misfortunes without prior preparation, proving you can adapt to whatever comes.
• Mentally preparing for a long life (around 80 years) is practical and aligns with statistical averages.
• Focus on what you know (like your current capabilities) rather than trying to predict the unknown future.
• Use your imagination to visualize and create the future you want, rather than dwelling on potential negatives.
• As an adult, you control your environment and can create lasting good things in your life.
• Accept that the future is uncertain, but trust in your ability to handle whatever comes with maturity and intelligence.
