I talk about the power of thoughts very often and how if we're able to change our inner narrative, we can change our whole outlook on a situation. One reason why this is so important is because our brains can't tell the difference between real and imagined scenarios, so whatever event we are playing or replaying in our mind, the brain is actually living it as if it were really happening. So it is vitally important to stay in the present moment and recognize the reality of our current circumstances, rather than potentially spiraling out of control or focusing on the negative aspects over the positive ones.
