Worrying is Like a Rocking Chair 

 

"Worry is like a rocking chair

it gives you something to do

but won't get you anywhere."

Author unknown  

   

As I see it. . . . . . . .

Worry is like a rocking chair  

When we're sitting in a rocking chair we have the allusion that we moving but all we'll doing is rocking in place. We can rock slower, we can rock faster but at the end of the day we are still in the same place were we started. 

Worrying is a lot like sitting in that rocking chair we are moving but at the end of the day we have made no progress.   

Worrying is a waste of time and effort and will stymie the progress in resolving the issues.

 Take the actions to resolve the issues and as you do worry dissolve.
