Worry problems are everywhere in our daily life. How to solve them? The answer is that we must equip ourselves to deal with different kinds of worries by learning the three basic steps of problem analysis. The three steps are:

When trying to get the facts, you can pretend that you are collecting this information not for yourself but for some other person. _2】. You can also pretend that you are a lawyer preparing to agree. Try to get all the facts both on your side and the other side of the case. You will generally find the truth lies somewhere in between.

For example, what am I worrying about? What can I do about it? Here is what I’m going to do about it. After carefully weighing all the facts, you can calmly come to a decision.

Act on that decision.

4】 . How can you break the worry habit before it breaks you? Crowd worry out of your mind by keeping busy. Plenty of action one of the best ways to cure worry 5】. If you know a situation is beyond your power, say to yourself: It is so; it can’t be otherwise.” Don’t permit little things to ruin your happiness. Try to cultivate a mental attitude that will bring you peace and happiness.
