Free of Worry

My Life Is Free Of Worry.

A life filled with worry is a life that is spent in a state of despair. Worrying doesn’t solve anything. It is what my mind does in order to force me to pay attention to what it feels is an issue in my life. Instead of solving anything, I spend my time in frustration. I lose sleep and I lose my ability to focus on what I am doing.

I live a life that is free of worry for the simple reason that when I worry, my level of productivity diminishes. Instead of worrying about the problem, I figure out what I can do about it. I write out actual physical steps I can take to solve the problem. I then act on those steps. Soon, the problem goes away, and the anxiety goes away with it.

While I’m working on fixing the problem, the worries are gone. My mind is content that I am solving the issue. After the issue is solved, my mind is content because the issue is gone. I am then free to devote all my mental energies on any problem I wish to solve and be free from the pain and frustration of incessant worrying.

By solving the problem, I let my mind relax and focus. I become more efficient, and I start living a life that isn’t haunted with negative thoughts. If I have a particular concern that I cannot solve then and there, I write it down for later. This lets my mind relax. It feels confident that I will return to the problem, and it leaves me alone. I am left with a life of peace and productivity.

Questions of Reflection:

1. Are you worrying more than you need to?
2. Do you know how to get those thoughts out of your head?
3. Can you pick up the worry eliminating habits that make your life more productive.

Vigorous Life

I live an animated and vigorous life.

I take in deep breaths. I know that my body is healthy and that my mind is clear.

I enjoy the feeling, and I savor it. I have learned how to enjoy every second of my life, from the most stressful to the happiest. I take it all in. I breathe it in deeply. I feel like a well-oiled machine, ready and prepared for whatever life has to throw my way.

I treat myself well. I never abuse my body. I am kind to it, but not soft. I work it, run it, and test it. I eat well, pay attention to nutrition, and I always get enough sleep at night.

My life is focused and balanced. Everything makes sense. Happiness, hope, and health are deeply related. I fill myself with all the good energy life has to offer, and I let in all the warmth.

My smile is genuine. It radiates. All my happiness comes through. I share my sense of well-being. My attitude is positive and my drive carries me through life’s toughest challenges. When I feel negativity creeping up on me, I step back, and let myself relax. I let out the bad and let in the good. I wait for the negativity to pass. I don’t hold onto it. I wish it farewell.

My friends, coworkers, and family can feel the positivity. It affects their day. They then pass it back to me. It’s like we are all sharing the happiness. I am careful with the commitments and responsibilities I take on in life. I never let them get out of control. I work to enjoy my life, and the more I work on it, the easier it becomes.

Questions of Reflection:

1. Can you remember the last time you felt on top of the world?
2. Do you take care of yourself in a way you know will enhance your life?
3. Do you know how to flow through negativity and embrace the good in any situation?
