Episode 686 - Book Review: How to Stop Worrying and Start Living
This is the second time I’ve read the book, How to Stop Worrying and Start Living by Dale Carnegie and still it is in the top five of my reading of the first fifty books in 2021. The power of your mind, and mindset, is helpless when it comes to the power of worry. When you worry, you will impact so much more than you know. Dale summarizes this in his book perfectly: Those who do not know how to fight worry die young.
Dale cites Dean Hawkes of Columbia University who said, “half the worry in the world is caused by people trying to make decisions before they have sufficient knowledge on which to base a decision.”
I like his quote from Norman Vincent Peale: You are not what you think you are. What you think, you are.
“So what are you supposed to do about strife, Troy” some of you may ask. You can be concerned about things, just don’t worry about those things.
Concern: realizing what the problems are and calmly taking steps to address them
Worry: going around in maddening futile circles
