10 Minute Daily Reality Check

The Speculation Story is a great topic. There are many examples. Dating is a good one.

Think about when you go on a date. You look at the person and you speculate what you *think* they’re about. You have a preconceived, speculative story of what you think this person is all about.
Think about the little things they do and how you speculate a rejection just because the person left early.

We’ve been taught how to speculate. We create scenarios because we want to know why something didn’t work out.
It helps us feel better about ourselves.

We need to teach ourselves to stop speculating because we don’t always know. We don’t always need an answer to everything.

We didn’t get the job because the company didn’t want us. We didn’t get a second date because the person didn’t like us.

We need to stop speculating and just learn to let things be.
