Fearful Boss

I have noticed that my boss is constantly looking for problems, disasters and catastrophes, and actually they do seem to happen quite often. I wonder if there is any way to handle that.

Dear Deepak, would you have any advice on how to handle this situation as it can’t seem to stop. Many Thanks, Love!
