back again with me on this occasion I want to write about, I used to be very worried about my health and life. Most of my worries are based on my desire for a better future, what I can do to make myself better, and how I will do it. The second thing that worries me about my health is how to improve it, and what to do so as not to make things difficult for myself, and all this has always been a worry for me. Whatever I accomplish, it doesn't always move me. I didn't feel happy with many things, which then reflected the way I lived.
To the point that my worries always overshadow my happiness, and this is the result of me always focusing on things that bother me. This happened for quite a while until I met a friend who explained to me that I had chosen to be happy because when this person explained what he was going through for me, I realized that my situation was getting better. Still, he was always happy, and he chose happiness, and because of that, I keep trying to be happy too, and I think these days things are getting better .

We don't live in the process

One thing that worries do most is take up our time, and time is one of the most important things in life because it is not renewable and we cannot recycle it, most of us spend time worrying instead of making us happy, and this is because we believe that once we solve everything that worries us, we will spend the rest of our time being happy, and life is not always like that. I realize my problems never end, but I have to find time to be happy because previously I spent most of my days worrying and fearing about the future, which robbed me of my happiness, and I got to the point where I didn't know what to do. have friends again.
I realized that if I continued on this path of always worrying, the only thing I would remember was always feeling sad, and this would mean I wasn't experiencing life. I didn't live a decent life because it got to the point when I started hearing people's stories, I realized that my story wasn't that bad, I just chose to be sad. Therefore, we must reduce our worries and focus on how to be truly happy and live it so that we are not remembered for always being sad and so that we can truly appreciate every little thing we achieve and be happy. Because most people believe that at the end of solving all their problems, they can really be happy, but their worries take their lives.

What changed

One of the strangest things about worrying all the time is that it doesn't change anything. Even if you worry constantly for a year, it won't change the fact that sometimes the things you worry about are out of your control. Instead of spending all our energy worrying, we can focus on finding solutions. The relief that comes from finding a solution is always rewarding, and even if we don't succeed, we should still live a fulfilling life by doing things that make us happy and appreciating the little things, thank you regards .

A lovely read @masril.

Whilst worry is a natural part of our human makeup, I do agree with you - it is only useful to us if it gets us to action some sort of positive change.

I think one of the secrets to overcoming this is pretty much what you have outlined... but I will add - sometimes it is not so much about cancelling out your worries about a specific thing, but rather shifting your focus onto something else which is positive and makes you feel good.

Most times, that shift of focus will diffuse the magnitude of the worry, enabling you to move past it.
