We
are
all,
to
a
certain
extent,
slaves
of
habit,
whether
good
or
bad.
For
instance,
there
is
the
worrying
habit,
for
worry
is
really
a
habit.
Therefore,
it
is
a
splendid
plan
to
become
slaves
of
good
habits.
One
who
has
acquired
the
chronic
habit
of
worrying
needs
a
mental
antiseptic.
Worry
never
benefited
anyone;
it
has
brought
thousands
to
an
untimely
grave.
To
give
prolonged
and
grave
thought
to
a
problem
that
may
come
into
your
life,
with
the
view
of
forming
an
intelligent
conclusion,
should
not
be
called
worry,
but
anxiety.
There
is
a
very
great
difference
between
worry
and
concentrated
study
of
a
vexing
problem.
The
characteristic
of
worry
is
a
tendency
to
brood
anxiously
over
fancied
troubles.
The
typical
worrying
mind
will
take
mere
trifles
and
magnify
them
until
they
become
monumental
difficulties.
Many
acquire
the
habit
of
going
over
and
over
again,
and
still
again,
the
various
unpleasant
experiences
which
they
have
passed
through
during
life.
This
inclination
is
baneful
in
its
influence,
To
such
persons
I
would
say,
eliminate
the
past.
Try
the
forgetting
habit,
cultivate
health
and
along
with
it
good
cheer.
Make
your
mind
a
blank
so
far
as
the
past
is
concerned,
and
fill
it
with
uplifting
thoughts
for
the
present
and
the
future.
Worry
is
a
mental
poison,
the
toxic
element
produced
in
the
mind
by
retention
of
waste
matter,
thoughts
of
the
dead
past
that
should
have
been
eliminated
with
the
passing
of
out-worn
periods
of
existence.
