With the way the world is today, it’s vitally important that we all learn how to manage stress and uncertainly. Although some cling to worry as a badge of honor, worry does you no good.  It’s actually counterproductive.

Worry is visualizing the future in a negative way.  It robs the present moment of its joy.  If someone does it a lot, worry and the chronic stress it creates will ruin their physical vitality in addition to their peace of mind

Fortunately, how much we spend our time in worry is largely under our control – although some would have you believe otherwise.

For example, many people attribute their worry to outside events.  They carry the belief that feeling anxious is their only possible response to a situation.  If someone does this, they’ve given up control.

Many people believe that worry serves a useful purpose.

The more we look, the clearer it becomes that there are other mistaken beliefs as well.

So to begin freeing yourself from excessive worry, you should consider your beliefs concerning the role worry plays in your life.  What do you think it does for you?  Do you think it’s the best way to use your time?  You won’t be able to free yourself from worry if you don’t recognize what benefit you might believe it has.

Some people believe that worry is unavoidable and useful. Such people think if they worry they’re being mature.  They consider optomists “Pollyannas” and somehow not as responsible as they are.

Those beliefs are rubbish.

Worrying is actually a poor use of time.  Instead of being a route to, it keeps you stuck in the problem.  The productive approach is to focus on the problem only long enough to clearly define it, then immediately shift to working on the solution.

Another reason some people worry is that they believe it somehow protects them from bad things happening.

Let’s face it, that way of thinking comes close to being a superstition.  All worry does is keep you from enjoying the present moment. Worry fills a mind with bad possble outcomes that most likely will never happen.

As you consider your beliefs about worry youll likely realize that it’s hurting rather than helping you.  It’s my belief that society would be much better off if we spent less time worrying and more time imagining a brighter future.
