What Can I Do About This?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Whenever you find yourself worried about anything, ask yourself the action question: \u201cWhat can I do about this issue right now?\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Then do something right away. Whatever happens. Any little thing.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

For most of my life, I've spent my time asking myself the wrong questions every time I'm worried. I always ask myself, \u201cWhat should I think about this?\u201d I asked. Fortunately, I was finally able to discover that I was much happier when I instead asked the right question: \u201cWhat can I do about it?\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

One day, I came up with an action system that completely changed my worrying habit. I was putting together five issues I was worried about in a list. Of these, four, for example, were work-related projects, and the fifth could have been a problem with any of my son's teachers. Then I would spend five minutes on each of these topics to find something I could do, whatever it was. So I spent a total of twenty-five minutes on all the issues I was concerned about, doing something for each. I was never wasting more time. As such, none of them clung to my entire day.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Then I managed to make a game out of it. The first project on the list was to create a seminar workbook for a new training course that had to be up in a certain amount of time. I was spending five minutes writing that book to prepare. Maybe this time was enough for me to write two pages at most, but it gave me great relief. Because I saw that I was finally starting to do that work. Then I would move on to worry number two; to a meeting with a client about a troubled contract. I was calling my client, setting an appointment date and time over the phone and taking notes on my agenda. That sounded good too. My third concern was the pile of letters I had to answer. I was pulling out what I was going to answer in five minutes from the replies pile, preparing my letters and adding them to my "finished basket". This gave a sense of satisfaction. Fourth, it was an itinerary to work on. I was leaving a voicemail on the answering machine asking my travel agent to look at my schedule and fax me about the options they could suggest about the trip.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Finally, I was going to talk about my son. I would pull a blank sheet of paper in front of me and write a short letter to my son's teacher, expressing my concern about my son and expressing my support for what his teacher was doing for him, suggesting that the three of us get together and agree on some issues as soon as possible.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

All this in just twenty-five minutes. Thus, the five issues that worried me the most were no longer a concern. Then I would go back to the beginning and continue my work from where I left off to finalize each one.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

If there is something that worries you, you should definitely do something about it. It doesn't have to be something large enough to completely eliminate that worry; as long as it has anything to do with that problem. No matter how small you do, you will find that it will have a huge impact on you. Because you will have succeeded in doing something. <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

In the future, when you're going to worry about anything, ask yourself, "What is the smallest thing I can do about it right now?" Then do what you think. But never think of asking the question, \u201cWhat can I do that can help me get rid of this problem completely?\u201d Because this question can't get you to take any action at all. <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Addressing your concerns with action will free you to focus your attention on other issues. It will remove fear and uncertainty from your life and give you control over creating what you want again.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
