Say goodbye to the false belief that success equals freedom from worry…

You think if you just had 50k followers, someday you won’t have to worry about it anymore.

You think if you make enough money, someday you won’t have to worry about it anymore.

If you get big enough, strong enough, you won’t have to worry about being pushed around.

If you can get through this or that rough patch, you can relax and not be so worried anymore.

Of course, it never works out that way.

No one has ever gotten there and reported back on their worry-free life.

Just as you must have noticed how this has gone with your progress.

You have more today than you did before…

How do you feel?

Have all your problems disappear?

Does that mean worry is just a part of life?

Stress is present no matter how successful, powerful, or famous you become.

It’s within you.

It’s a choice you’re making.

Worry, doubt, anxiety, stress–any emotion you experience in your lives–is internal.

You have influence over the latter, not the former.

So let’s try to solve the problem where it will actually make a difference.

Let’s enjoy your life with whatever you have.

Take the first step towards a worry-free life.
