Man on the Move
![]() | Worrying doesn’t take away tomorrow’s trouble, it takes away today’s peace.Dudes, ever catch yourself running mental marathons over things that might happen? You replay conversations, analyze every decision, and stress over outcomes that haven’t even arrived. Sound familiar? That’s not strategy, that’s mental sabotage. |
You can prep. You can plan. But when your brain starts sprinting ahead without you, you’re not gaining control, you’re surrendering your peace. It’s like rocking in a chair, thinking you’re going somewhere. You’re just getting tired and nowhere fast.
Here’s the Move: Notice the thought spiral, then cut it off. Ask yourself: “Can I do something about this right now?” If yes, act. If not, let it go. Worrying is your mind’s way of trying to feel in control but it’s fake control. Action is real. Stillness is powerful.
Why bother? Because peace is fuel. When you’re calm, you think clearer, decide faster, and move smarter. So next time your brain tries to borrow trouble from tomorrow, don’t co-sign. Protect your peace, it’s where your power lives.
