Episode 3690:

David Cain explores how we often turn fleeting problems into enduring struggles by mentally amplifying them. By learning not to “make a thing out of it,” we can reduce unnecessary suffering and let difficulties pass without becoming emotional narratives. His practical insight shows how small mindset shifts can make life smoother and more peaceful.

Quotes to ponder:

"Most of our suffering comes from what we do after a problem appears."

"The trick is not to give the moment any new meaning it doesn’t already have."

"Let the bad moment hang there, raw and unprocessed, without turning it into a story."
