Worry Remedy #1: Analyze Your Worry
To stop worrying, it's important to analyze your worries and identify potential courses of action. An example is given about Galen Lichfield, who faced a worrisome situation when a Japanese admiral demanded him to liquidate the company's assets. Lichfield wrote down his worry and potential actions, ultimately deciding which course of action had the highest probability of a positive outcome. He committed to that option, and the worry vanished when the admiral eventually left without taking any action.
