Labor Denial

I'm 41 weeks and 1 day today and still nothing. I'm dilated 2 cm as of Monday and my cervix is thinning out pretty good but besides BH I'm not feeling any real contractions.
My biggest concern at this point is that I'm in denial about labor. I don't know if it's because I'm past due or I'm just trying not to think about this part of pregnancy.
Should I be mentally preparing for labor or is it OK to just not really think about it until it happens?
