When you begin to worry, go find something to do. Get busy being a blessing to someone do something fruitful. Talking about your problem or sitting alone, thinking about it, does no good it serves only to make you miserable. Above all else, remember that worrying is totally useless. Worrying will not solve your problem.

Instead of being critical of people in authority over you and envious of their position, be happy you're not responsible for everything they have to do. Instead of piling on complaints, thank them for what they do. Overwhelm them with encouragement and appreciation!
