“Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow, it empties today of its strength.”
How many of the things I feared would happen in my life did actually happen?
we should all ask ourselves this bog question
If you are anything like me then the answer will be: very few. And the very few ones that actually happened were mostly not as painful or terrible as I had expected.
Worries are most often just monsters you build in your own mind.
I find that asking myself this question regularly and reminding myself of how little of the worries that actually came to life makes easier and easier to stay calm and to stop a worried thought before it becomes a big snowball of negativity.
how to stop worrying?
Don’t try to guess what is on someone’s mind.
Trying to read someone’s mind usually doesn’t work too well at all. Instead, it can very easily lead to creating an exaggerated and even disastrous scenario in your mind.So choose a way that is less likely to lead to worries and misunderstandings.Communicate and ask what you want to ask.
Work out
.Few things work so well and consistently as working out to release inner tensions and to move out of a headspace that is extra vulnerable to worries.I also find that working out – especially with free weights – makes me feel more decisive and focused.So even though working out helps me to build a stronger body my main motivation to keep doing it is for the wonderful and predictable mental benefits.
Spend more time in the present moment.
When you spend too much time reliving the past in your mind then it easy to start feeding your worries about the future. When you spend too much time in the future then is also easy to get swept away by disaster scenarios.So focus on spending more of your time and attention in the present moment.
enjoy your life....
