This might make you anxious

Author Jeffrey Allen says that anxiety is often an energy imbalance because you’re about to reach a fork in the road of life. 

And haven’t we all had a few of those!?

Here’s some of mine:

  • Multiple divorces
  • Collapse of a £multi-million business sale
  • Subsequent personal bankruptcy and loss of home
  • Parental alienation of my first son by my ex-wife and her partner
  • Employing over 200 people before I realised I really didn’t want to do that

Each of those caused me sleepless nights and numerous physical and mental traumas, some of them long-term.

But I’ve learnt 2 things in retrospect:

  1. Nothing turns out as badly as I imagined it would, when I was living in fear of the outcome, and
  2. As soon as I made a decision to solve a challenge and move on, all the anxiety disappeared

So, my pro-tip for reducing the stress in any situation:

Work out what you need to do, and make it happen.

NOW.

Procrastination in a whirlpool of hesitant deliberation is what breeds anxiety.

Instead of fearing an imaginary vision of the future, get yourself there more quickly and see what it’s like for real.
