You made a small mistake…
And now it feels huge.
You zoom in, spiral, and suddenly—
you’re holding your breath over something no one else even noticed.
🧠 That’s not your fault.
It’s your brain’s error detector—
meant to help you grow,
but hijacked by fear.
And now it sounds like:
“Fix it. Obsess over it. Replay it until you feel better.”
But you don’t feel better.
You just feel stuck.
🔍 It’s like carrying a magnifying glass
and only using it on your flaws.
Every mistake looks massive—no matter how small.
💡 Ask yourself:
“Is this actually a threat… or just a thought?”
