What I learnt from the book If you want to avoid worry live in sidereal day tight compartments. When our mind is occupied with work, we wont have time to worry. It applies not only to worry, but to all kinds of negative thoughts as well.We will greatly decrease their influence if we are busy doing some intimacy constructive. We should know how to analyze and solve worry problems. We can do that by finding and collecting all the facts, analyzing those facts, make a decision, and act on it. Count your blessings, not your troubles. If we want to be quick, we should focus on all the things that work well i n our life and stymie the other things that dont. One of the best ways to increase your productivity is to take rest regularly. Take rest before you feel tired.Doing this simple thing will energize yourself throughout the day and enable you to accomplish more. One of the best teachers is your own experience. You can learn from it by taking notes of the fool things you have done and criticize yourself. If you constantly do this, you will constantly improve yourself. We should not worry about what other people say about whether or not we have done our best. Once we have done our best, we can be happy no matter what people say. Often we arent happy because we try to change things we cant change. We should learn to identify those things and accept them.
