No worries working and living
All we do is create experiences. That is all we do, as human beings. There is nothing else we do here on earth.

Worry and Fear
We become what we think about most.
'The psychological rule says that when an inner situation is not made conscious, it happens outside, as fate. That is to say, when an individual remains undivided and does not become conscious of his inner contradictions, the world must perforce act out the conflict and be torn into opposite halves.' — Carl Jung 'Much of your pain is self-chosen. It is the bitter potion by which the physician within you heals your sick self. Therefore trust the physician, and drink his remedy in silence and tranquility: For his hand, though heavy and hard, is guided by the tender hand of the Unseen.' — Kahlil Gibran 'The attempt to escape a problem is the problem. See the logic of this. When a man tries to escape, when he moves away from the problem, he divides himself into one man with a problem and another man who will escape the problem. In reality, there is no such division, so the escape must always fail, as the man sadly experiences. But when seeing that he is the problem itself, that he and his problem are one, he stops trying to escape because he sees there is no other course. In this state of intelligent acknowledgement of reality, he will not have the problem.' — Vernon Howard 'The aphorism, 'As a man thinketh in his heart so is he,' not only embraces the whole of a man's being, but is so comprehensive as to reach out to every condition and circumstance of his life.' — James Allen 'Whether you believe you can or you can't - either way you are right' — Henry Ford
They then analyze the analysis and analyze that analysis until what is left is a mass of confusion and fear and doubt.
Worry and fear is the single most destructive force in this world and in our personal lives and businesses. Yet we do it every day!
That which we fear and worry about materializes. We are worries about things, because we are worried about things. It is a vicious cycle.
