Why Do You Worry?

Worrying about things is the biggest cause of stress - leading to illness.


Worrying is the useless pattern of thinking that complains, whines and agonises over what's happened, is happening, or might happen.


The problem with worrying is that it rarely seeks soultion and rarely leads to action, it just keeps worrying on and on, until another thought takes over. The other thought is often a fresh worry about another issue. Dumb eh?


The solution to worrying is to ask yourself this question - "What can I do about it?"


If you can do something - do it. Of course that means you'll have to overcome your fear or habits or ignorance about the issue first. Well do that too.


If you can't do anything about the issue - let it go. Instead ask yourself this question - "What's the best thing I can do right now?" Then do that.


That's all. Nothing to it really, just our fears habits and ignorance! And not asking ourselves the better questions.

Until next time.
