How Worry Can Interfere with Success

Worry is simply imagining events that have not actually occurred. Worry is mental, worry is negative, and therefore worry is wasted, destructive thought energy.

Worry is a projection of your focus or consciousness into some time in the future. Since your only point of power is in the present, worry renders you mentally powerless. Worry is inaction, not action. Only action produces results. Inaction doesn't produce, create, or change a thing.

Worry comes in many shapes and sizes, but regardless of the object or subject, it is always about potential negative outcomes. Here are just a few examples:

• Worry that something you have done will be found out.
• Worry that something you desire or feel you need won't come about.
• Worry about family members or friends and how they will turn out.
• Worry that you won't finish a project before time runs out.
• Worry that you will lose your job and about the income you'll be without.
• Worry that your health or life will give out.
• Worry that before your bills are paid your money won't hold out.
• Worry that a plan you have made won't work out.

It is normal for everyone to worry from time to time, but if you find that you are worrying constantly, this is an indication that something is wrong and you need to do all you can to change this damaging behaviour.
