I woke up this morning to the Bob Marley song, “Don’t Worry About a Thing”. Pretty simple lyrics repeated over and over. The essence of the song, “Don't worry about a thing, 'Cause every little thing gonna be all right.”
What are you worried about? Is your worry pushing you to do something or are you paralyzed as a result and afraid to move forward? Are you using the initial concern to move you forward, to do something about the worry, to step out of yourself and do something positive? Again, I like Bob’s attitude. Every little thing gonna be all right. It usually is. Things work out.
One of our favorite quotes in our home is, “Crisis + Time = Humor”. Worry can be a waste. Or, it can be a motivator to laugh and then achieve something new and powerful. Maybe the first thing you should do is stop worrying?
