You put a number on it
Dentist, Friday 2:30. How hard will it be?
Say how you think it’ll go. Meloa holds time before and after it, then asks how it really went.

This is the whole idea, walked through with an example: a dentist appointment on Friday.

Kept
After a few, you can see how far the dread runs ahead of the day.
Across the 12 hard things you’ve faced, the dread ran about 1.7× bigger than the reality. 10 of them came in gentler than you predicted — your brain over-forecasts, and you keep proving it wrong.
An example record: twelve events, each rated before and after. Yours won’t look like this one. That’s the point of keeping your own.
