It's almost as though we search for problems to give ourselves stress. The amazing news is that much of what we worry about doesn't matter at all! Take a look at these statistics about worry:

  • 40% of all things that we worry about never come to pass.
  • 30% of all our worries involve past decisions that cannot be changed.
  • 12% focus on criticism from others who spoke because they felt inferior.
  • 10% are related to our health, which gets worse when we worry.
