0:01Hey, it's Jay.

0:03I don't know what your day's been like, but I was just thinking about you for a minute.

0:08And I hope you're being a little patient with yourself, because you deserve it.

0:12And yeah, I'll talk to you soon.

0:24Have you ever noticed that your brain is a terrible fortune teller?

0:28Think about how many times it has confidently predicted the future, only to end up completely wrong.

0:34It convinced you the relationship was over because they didn't text you back for a few hours.

0:39It told you you were definitely going to embarrass yourself before the presentation, only for it to become one of the best meetings you've ever had.

0:47It kept you awake the night before your performance review, certain you were about to be fired when your boss was actually preparing to give you praise.

0:56If your weather app got tomorrow's forecast wrong, as often as your anxious mind does, you delete it immediately.
