This is a diagram we have in our kitchen. It's from the ancient Greek; it's the mindset of a Stoic. It actually looks like a box (with every arrow pointing to one "THEN DON'T WORRY" in the middle of the box), but I can't replicate it here.


Do you have a problem?------------------> NO---------------->THEN DON'T WORRY

PP. I think this is great advice!

From my father - “Honey, don’t worry.” I asked about what? He said, “Anything. If you can’t do a thing about it, worrying only harms you.”

If you spend less than what you earn- tada! You’re rich!
