I am a constant worrier. I worry about everything. From global issues like the world coming to an end, global warming and man damaging our Mother Earth to mundane things like getting infected by infectious diseases from toilets (full of E coli) to what is the future for my boys and especially work. What can I do to reduce worry?
1. Read books on Happiness and Positive Psychology. Learn different ways to be happy like 3 gratitudes daily.
2. Write a to do list. Once the list is written, it put mind to rest that you will not forget.
3. Plan for Uncertain Future. We know the certain part of future i.e. tomorrow we still need to eat and live. So have a cushion sum of money for a few months of expenses. This way, we know that we at least will not have to worry about money to tackle any unexpected and unpleasant things that happens.
4. Prepare Early. There are many demanding tasks and deadlines. So take the time to prepare important and the key word is important tasks early. When sufficient time is spent mulling over the tasks, usually they will be done to a satisfactory conclusion.
5. Laugh. Watch comedies like Just for Laugh Gags, read funny comics and jokes, have fun with family. Laughter will generate endorphins and give a sense of well-being. Worry will stop temporarily for constant worriers.
6. Gratitude. Be grateful all the time. Grateful for being alive, grateful for the food we are eating, grateful for friends and family. Count our blessings shift our mindset to positive aspects of our life.
These are pointers I used to reduce my worries. I hope they work for you as well.
