Things to tell yourself to combat stress.
1) I am going to school, not running a bridge on a plateau assault where the parshendi arrived first.
2) I am going on a date, not getting betrayed by my childhood friend in the middle of a battle against TWO parshendi armies.
3) I am going to a job interview, not staying out during a highstorm completely unaided (yes, that includes Syl)
4) I have received an email, not a shardblade while being a darkeyes in Amarams army
5) I am stressed and anxious, but I am NOT Kaladin Stormblessed that one night at the chasm.
You can do this! I believe in you! And if nothing works, carrying your bridge sideways does!
