I've done a lot of thinking today. Recently I've been worrying a lot about things that are out of my control. What if this happens? What if that goes wrong? What if things don't work out the way I want them to?
I've always been a worrier. If I get something on my mind, I can't let it go and I just keep thinking about it, feeling like I have to make some choices or decisions about things. I know this is a bit abtract to a lot of people but in my head it makes sense. I've spent the last few days worrying and going over different scenarios in my head. Last night, I decided I need to do something about it. So I wrote down a list of things that worry me, then I wrote down possible ways to deal with my worries. My conclusion: Stop worrying about things you can't control!
This is off course easier said than done but the truth is that there is absolutely no point to it. Worrying will only makes things worse. Worrying and obsessing about the past is just plain out stupid. What's happened has happened and there's nothing you can do about it. Work on how to do better in the future instead. Worrying about the future won't do you any good either, things will always work out one way or another! Just try to live in the moment and appreciate life for what it is today.
Obviously this is hard, and I'm nowhere near there yet. But I am working on it!
