Just wanted to share a meditation that helps me when I'm worried and need to be reminded I can't control everything. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EO1ZNpJF4v4

Quoting Mark Manson's theory of Self-Improvement (and his expletives):

"Self-improvement is about prioritizing better values, choosing better things to give a f*ck about. Because when you give better f*cks you get better problems. And when you get better problems, you get a better life."

I just finished his book and it really helped me think about what I care to worry about because like you, I worry about a lot of things, a lot of the time. By reframing my worries as values, it's a little bit easier to be more deliberate about the things I choose to spend my time worrying about.

I resonate with this so much. I just had to time myself that worrying is killing me faster and I've been more chill ever since 😂
