Worrying About Your Problems

“Worry will never solve tomorrow’s problems tomorrow BUT it will sap your energy today”- James Altucher

I heard this quote while listening to James' podcast.  It immediately made me realize the foolishness of worrying.  So why do we worry?

The bigger question is not why but how we stop worrying.  As the quote advises, we sap our energy today by worrying.  This lack of energy does not help us solve the problem and it places us in a bad state of mind.

In my opinion, the only way to solve any problem is to take a small baby step towards the solution.  What do I mean by a baby step?  Baby step is the smallest step that you know with certainty that is the right step to do.  Then follow it with a pause, re-evaluate, and take another small baby step.  Continue the process until you figure out the solution.

Today's question is:

"How do you remind yourself to stay focused on the baby step solution to your problem instead of worrying?
