Get Free of the Worry Habit
The next question is - What can I do about it? What is the
first step? My best advice on this is to first recognize worry for what
it is, admit what it does, and then decide that you now want to be
free. It first starts with decision on your part. And may I add, well
you should decide.
- Why let worry continue to take money out of your pocket and
bank account? - Why let worry any longer keep you from becoming all you can be?
- Why let worry rob you of better friendships, better business,
better profits, better results, better communication, and better
family relations? - Why impose your worry on others any longer? It’s a burden you
can get rid of, and a monkey you can get off your back. - Why not be rid of those sinking, nagging, feelings that all is not
going to be well, that you can’t do it, that it won’t work out for
the best?
Worry is undue concern that takes up too much of your mental
and emotional time. Now, we must all be concerned. Hey, life is no
joke except to the jokers. Life and how to live it is a serious matter.
It is risky, full of peril. And there are constant threats to the good
we want and to the pursuit of happiness. However, it is undue
concern, or concern that takes up too much mental time that
begins the harm.
It’s like a family planning a wonderful trip. While they certainly
should be concerned about the condition of the car, the tires, and
making sure they picked the proper route, it would be foolish to
allow themselves to be completely turned negative with the thought
that they might crash and kill the entire family. If that were the
case, even if they went, the entire trip would be turned into one
nightmare of fear with a specter of chaos looming around every
curve, rather than enjoying the wonderful trip they had planned for
themselves and their family. A lot of people do that with their entire
life.
