#28 of 30 Things to Stop Doing to Yourself


Stop worrying so much.Worry will not strip tomorrow of its burdens, it will strip today of its joy.  One way to check if something is worth mulling over is to ask yourself this question: “Will this matter in one year’s time?  Three years?  Five years?”  If not, then it’s not worth worrying about.  Exactly... It is not worth it!

Not worrying is a hard task, believe me I know. I use to be the worst offender. Wasting time on all the woulda, shoulda, coulda's. It was not an easy task to give up on all the worrying but I had to do it! It does not benefit anyone. It only hurts you and makes you sick, at times physically. Stress, sleepless nights, headaches, etc. The glass is half full, stop looking at it as half empty... Think POSITIVE!!!

We sometimes have no control what the future may bring us. Wasting precious energy on worrying rather than what you can do to make the situation better is just that wasted precious time. Something you can NEVER get back. Make better use of the time thinking of ways to make it better. If you can't change what ever is making you worry then look for the solution to correct the problem and move on.... More loving put GET OVER IT!!!

Your time is too precious to lose over trivial things, no use crying over spilled milk. Wipe it up and move on to the next problem. Life is an obstacle course and you need to tackle it with a positive attitude. If you fall down, pick yourself back up, brush yourself off and chalk it up to lesson learned. Worry will not strip tomorrow of its burdens, it will strip today of its joy... Better to Live well, Laugh often and Love much!
