Nothing is more irritating than trying to work on something and being nagged by your worries.
Rather than let your worries get the better of you, how about making a box and stashing them in it?
Any kind of box works. A simple shoebox if you will. Or a nice decorative box.
Take a sheet of paper and list your worries. Once you’re done, put this in the box. Close it. Store it on a high shelf. Â
Next time your worries bug you when you’re trying to focus on something, look at your worry box up there and tell yourself that you don’t have to worry about it right now because you’ve put it away.
Affirm that you can pick up your worries later—if you really want to.
