In eradicating worry from our minds, we free ourselves to think practically about our circumstances, living in the moment rather than losing ourselves in our fears. True security originates in the heart rather than in the resolution of outer world concerns because we can choose to feel self-assured as easily as we choose to harbor anxious thoughts. When we select the former, we can think about the issues before us in concrete terms without becoming overwhelmed by emotional reactions. We are more apt to look for solutions, however far-fetched, and to implement them promptly. Instead of bemoaning our fate, we change what we can and leave the rest to the benevolent wisdom of the universe. In putting aside your worries, you enable yourself to address your situation constructively.
