How to Stop Worrying and Start Living: Time-Tested Methods for Conquering Worry
von Dale Carnegie
“So I banish about ninety per cent of my worries by taking these four steps: “1. Writing down precisely what I am worrying about. Writing down what I can do about it. Deciding what to do. Starting immediately to carry out that decision.” One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon—instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our windows today.

Relaxation and Recreation The most relaxing recreating forces are a healthy religion, sleep, music, and laughter. Have faith in God—learn to sleep well— Love good music—see the funny side of life— And health and happiness will be yours.
Ask yourself, “What is the worst that can possibly happen?” 2. Prepare to accept it if you have to. Then calmly proceed to improve on the worst.
“If a man will devote his time to securing facts in an impartial, objective way, his worries will usually evaporate in the light of knowledge.”
