Worrying Ruins The Moment

So I think a lot of people have anxiety because they think about stuff that happened to them when they were younger. They think about how their parents might have treated them or, you know, something terrible that might happen to them when they're younger, and that causes them anxiety because they're holding on to in the present moment. But I think a lot of anxiety really comes from worrying about what might happen in the future. And so I always tell people, when I hear people, when I have coaching clients, and they're like, but I'm worried about this. I'm worried about this. I say to them, we might get off the phone right now. You might go and get in your car, decide to go get a sandwich, and just get hit by a truck, and that's it. It's the end. So you were worrying about something that never came to fruition in the first place. So to cause anxiety in the present moment and to realize that there's nothing you can do about the future right now, except for just try to be the best that you possibly can be at this second is ruining your present moment. And that's the only thing that you have. If you have 10 more minutes to live and you don't know it, what's the why waste these 10 minutes worrying about something that's not actually going to happen in the future? Because most of the time, anxiety, worry, and fear is all something that never actually happens in the first place.
