Worrying about issues unnecessarily can cause both psychological and physical distress. A lot of times, what we worry about never comes true.
When you find yourself worrying, ask yourself, "Can I do anything about it?" If you can, then take the required action to eliminate the worry. If you can't do anything about it, or if it is beyone your control, then don't waste your time worrying!
