Tags: Chinese proverbs


The first essential component of worry is a future orientation. In other words, when you worry you invariably focus on something that might happen but hasn't happened yet. This notion might seem a bit controversial. In fact, you might even disagree with it. You might argue that you worry about things that are happening now, not in the future. A closer look, though, reveals the truth--worry is like a haunted crystal ball, tormenting you with a terrifying view of the future.
