Daily Stoic Entry #250: Am I Prepared for My Bubble to Be Burst?

September 8th, 2022

Follow along with my personal daily stoic journal, unfiltered, unedited (except for some spelling mistakes).

Morning Reflection:

I want to find a balance of anticipating this and being prepared but I find it difficult not to be overwhelmed by pessimism and just think negatively. Basically, waiting for the next shoe to drop. That I assume I will find no goodness in life and the future. This is a frequent problem where I'm trapped in my own extreme wat if thinking and obsessing over something.

Evening Reflection:

So, I'm partly prepared, I'm aware of the possibility and the challenges of this potential bubble bursting. I'm not sure what else I can say. I don't want to walk around every day thinking about everything that can go wrong all the time. The point is to think about it clearly but only once or occasionally.
