“Worrying is like shovelling air; a lot of effort and no result.”

I don’t remember where we heard this, but I know my dad has referenced it. I tend to stress myself about things that I have no control over, and this was his response. I like to think that this has helped me realize just how fruitless worrying is when you have no control. It is still an area I’m working on improving, but this summarizes how I hope to look at it.
