This book, written half a century ago, brought together a series of stories where practical strategies were used for overcoming worry problems. Appropriate use of these strategies may help build up confidence and lead to a happy life free of worry.
One of the worst features about worrying is that it destroys our ability to concentrate. When we worry, our minds jump here and there and everywhere, and we lose all power of decision. Those who do not know how to fight worry die young.
One of the tragic things 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 blooming roses outside our windows today.
The best possible way to prepare for the tomorrow is to concentrate with all our intelligence and enthusiasm on doing today's work superbly today. Our main business is not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to do what lies clearly at hand. So shut the iron doors on the past and the future. Remember to live in day-tight compartments.
A magic formula for solving worry situations:
Step I. Analyze the situation fearless and honestly and figure out what is the worst that could possibly happen as a result of this failure.
Step II. After figuring out what is the worst that could possibly happen, reconcile yourself to accepting it.
Step III. From that time on, calmly devote your time and energy to trying to improve upon the worst which you have already accepted mentally.
Good working habits:
1. Clear your desk of all papers except those relating to the immediate problem at hand.
2. Do things in the order of their importance.
3. When you face a problem, solve it then and there if you have the facts necessary to make a decision.
4. Learn to organize, deputize and supervise.
