I do not worry very much. Worry does not prevent mishaps or change outcomes; at least not for the better. It can only make things worse, distracting us from getting things done, making our minds race with one fret after another. The heroic Corrie Ten Boom had this to say about worry, “Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow; it robs today of its strength.”
However, have you noticed that if you tell yourself not to worry, you immediately begin to worry. It’s the white bear problem, or more technically ironic process theory. Fyodor Dostoevsky described it this way, “Try to pose for yourself this task: not to think of a polar bear, and you will see that the cursed thing will come to mind every minute.” Think of Ghostbusters and when they are told not to think of anything, of course they cannot do that and Ray thinks of the Stay Puff Marshmallow Man
I am under specific orders not to worry today. So, here I am, a lifelong non-worrier turning into a fretnick. I won’t worry, unless you tell me not to worry. Then all bets are off.
