In everyone’s life there is worry and anxiety. It’s normal to experience these things some of the time. What’s not normal and very harmful is the chronic perpetual worrier.
Worry and anxiety come from feeling helpless. This is a stressful emotional state. And for many it is a chronic emotional state. The harm it does is very serious, as you will see from the video.
Watch the video:
It doesn’t have to be. Every chronic negative emotional state that you find yourself becomes a way of being. Do you really like “being” a worrier? Do you really want worry and anxiety using up all your life’s energy? It drains you because you’re afraid to live!
Metaphorically, worry is a headache and a pain in the neck. If you’re suffering from a concussion, think about that. If you literally have a sore or stiff neck, think about that too!
You only make things worse when you worry. Why? Because it’s a prayer for bad things to happen! Is that what you want? To suffer so needlessly?
People worry about things that haven’t happened. They worry about things that they have NO control over!
I tell you about some of the possible and very serious physical symptoms you may experience in the video. Don’t allow yourself to go down that road. You are in control of your thoughts and your emotional state – your mindset and your emotionset. Together they are your dominating state of being. Will it be one that’s healthy or one that’s unhealthy. I can guarantee you that you will have serious problems in all parts of your life if you continue down this road.
Next week I’ll give you some tools and strategies to dissipate worry and anxiety. Until then, become aware of what you’re thinking and feeling. You have control!
