Anticipation can be a productive problem solving activity. What do I need to do to catch my plane, leave for holiday, have a good time? Too often it becomes an exercise in anxiety – what if I forget my passport, the plane is late, I have a miserable time? Try doing some anticipatory savouring instead. Imagine how good you feel reaching the airport in holiday clothes, arriving at your destination and exploring a new place. Think about that first sip of an ice cold cocktail or warming gluhwein in beautiful surroundings. Get your money’s worth in advance through anticipating the best.
