Don’t Worry… Or You May Never Get What You Want
By Anna Johnson on December 10th, 2009Worrying is surely one of the worst kinds of negative emotions. But apart from making you feel downright awful, here’s why it’s particularly destructive…
In his audiobook, ‘It’s Not About The Money’ Bob Proctor summed it up best:
“Worrying is negative goal setting”
That’s right, when you are worrying about something, you are focusing all your mental energies on what you don’t want. And, by definition, you are NOT focusing all your energies on what you DO want.
Unfortunately, we tend to get what we preoccupy our minds with… so worrying about something is not just mentally and emotionally draining, but it can actually prevent us from thinking about what we can do – and taking the necessary steps – to get what we DO want…
…with the result that we get the very outcome we DON’T want!
By all means plan for all contingencies, but say NO to worry…
