Then come up with an action plan on how to work through it from start to finish.
Plan For The Best Possible Outcome- In so many circumstances, your own viewpoint and positive energy really does have an influence on the outcome of a situation. Tell yourself that the job interview that you are going to have is going to go well or you are going to do well in the online class. Whatever you believe the best possible outcome for the situation, tell yourself that it is going to occur. You will never know how miraculous your own thoughts are and positive visualizations are.
