“Don’t let your imagination be crushed by life as a whole. Don’t try to picture everything bad that could possibly happen. Stick with the stuation at hand, and ask, ‘Why is this so unbearable? Why can’t I endure it?” You’ll be embarrassed to answer.

Marcus Aurelius Meditations Book VIII Chapter 36
