9 Steps to Overcome Worry
Let’s face it. Wouldn’t you like a life with no worries? Is it as easy as saying just don’t worry? Developing a habit of worry can happen so quickly you may not even notice it. Often, worry is learned when people are so young, they come to believe worry is natural. It is not. Worry is a mental affliction which can deepen into fear, anxiety and depression. How can you get rid of worry for good and have no worries? Here’s how. 1) Realize. Worry is a habit. We are with no worries, not with the ability to worry. It is something you learn from others. Who taught you how to worry? Brain researchers have recently concluded a habit can be made or broken in 21 to 40 days. The first step to having a worry free life is to break yourself of the worry habit. 2) Stop strangling yourself. The meaning of worry is to strangle or choke off your ability to think and reason soundly. Worry depletes your energy and can even cause physical illness. (You’ve heard of being worried sick? It can really happen.) A health consultant advised me, “Lori Prokop, just don’t worry.” 3) Unwise. Statistically worry is a foolish waste of time. The numbers show 40% of worries are about the past, 50% are about the future and only 10% are about today’s problems. Is worrying worth it? Only 8% of what people worry themselves sick about ever happens and 92% of worries never occur. Most likely, when you worry you are paying a high price for something that isn’t even real. For no worries, before you worry about something ask yourself if it is really happening now and if you could control it if it is. 4) Release. What if someone says, “Lori Prokop, don’t worry, be happy?” Here is how I recommend living as close to no worries as you can. Say daily, “I forgive myself and others for mistakes of the past.” Do this “Lori Prokop Don’t Worry Advice” not for their sakes, for your own sanity. 5) Look for the best. Stop looking for the worst in your situation, your future and in others. Live a life of no worries. Look for the best in your life and your future. Don’t worry about bad things that may happen. Focus on the power you do possess right now to create what you want in your life. 6) Steady. Cultivate a stable, steady personality of no worries. I know it can be fun and exciting watching movies with characters having worries and emotional meltdowns. But it is not fun living your life that way. Regardless of the amount of worry, anxiety or stress around you, take this advice from Lori Prokop and say, “My Higher Power of 100% pure love is keeping me peaceful and calm.” 7) Know what worry to procrastinate. One of the skills of happy people is to know what worry to procrastinate and overlook. This may seem an odd way to a worry free life. Let me explain. Do all the items on your “to-do” list need to be accomplished today? Does everything in your home need to meet your standards? Where could you have no worries on yourself and others? The well-respected psychologist William James noted, “Genius is to know what to overlook.” Lessen your self-accepted burdens and you will find you don’t worry as much. 8) Clear and Replace. Your mind can be cleared of any thoughts so you don’t worry. If it is full of worry, you can become worry free and replace worry with peaceful, calm and loving thoughts from the upper emotional levels of your Life Guidance System. Do this by saying, “I choose thoughts and feeling of 100% pure light and love. My heart and mind are full of peace and strength.” 9) Gratitude. One of the quickest ways to feel relief is to connect to your Higher Power through gratitude. Do this and you will feel a capable, calm and loving presence with you every minute of the day. I am asked, “Lori Prokop how do you get rid of worry?” I recommend this statement, or one like it, daily, “Thank you to my Higher Power of 100% pure love who is with me always — communicating with, helping and guiding me.” Don’t worry, be happy. To be worry free, consistently apply these steps. You will be amazed at the progress you can make at eliminating worry and how good it will feel to have no worries.
