Live for the Moment and Put Worry on Hold - Part 2 [ 457]
Inspirational / Motivational  ]
For once, I am going to endorse procrastination. When it comes to worrying, you should put it off. Do everything you like to avoid worrying. Worries don’t help us; and in fact, they make many bad situations worse. On top of that, most of what we worry about never comes to pass.
