Don't Worry


Don't worry about proving you are right.
Don't worry about those who say you are wrong.
Don't worry about doing what society tells you to do.
Don't worry about what other people think.
Don't worry about what you can not change.
Don't worry about your fears.
Don't worry about the past.
Don't worry about the future.
Don't worry about making mistakes.
Don't worry about failing.
Don't worry about doing it wrong.
Don't worry about your doubts.
Don't worry about fitting in.
Don't worry about standing out.
Don't worry about making enemies.
Don't worry about making friends.
Don't worry about being perfect.
Don't worry about being awkward.
Don't worry about saying the wrong thing.
Don't worry about being different.
Don't worry about being strange.

Don't worry about anything except doing your best and being the person you are meant to be.

  1. Hey there Joe,
    You always post wonderfully uplifting yet grounding things, and this is probably one of my favorites. I wasn't expecting to see "Don't worry about making friends," and it zinged like an arrow through my heartmind. Because I am worried about a lot of these things, what with my big move coming up, and this is a much-needed, much-appreciated reminder to focus on the main reason(s) I'm moving at all. So, thanks.
