No worries.....don't you wish that was true. I have to admire the casual optimism of the Australian people. It's tough not to worry these days. I worry about my aging mother all of the time. My son and husband both work in dangerous, demanding jobs, and I worry lots about them too. I worry about the plastic garbage that is swirling around the oceans and being deposited on my favorite holiday destinations. I worry those destinations will become ruined by too much tourism and greed. It is exhausting. Maybe it's all that sunshine in Australia that keeps the mates up. Or maybe it's that they are so far removed from other continents that the pervading pollution and hectic pace of our planet doesn't seem so real. ...whatever.....I'm now adopting their attitude and giving up the emotion. I feel better already. Sometimes you have to just verbalize something to imprint it on your brain. Take control with your frontal, executive lobe and don't let the emotional drain happen. Got it.....it is a beautiful evening here........no worries mates......

I say "no worries" quite a bit. But you know, I should really startin living it too. It's not easy - but I think It'll be worth the effort!
I struggle with the no worries thing - sometimes I can do it, others not.
In Tanzania, they have a similar saying that I thought was just a Disney invention - hakuna matata. I was pleased to hear that people there say it routinely.
Oh I find this SO hard.
I worry all the time- I know it is not good for my health.
No worries is a great mantra... what does worrying ever do for you anyway? Although, it's certainly easier said than done ; )
worrying IS exhausting AND worrying doesn't change anything. action changes things, but you can't always act.
so for me it's a matter of doing my best with the things i can do
but not letting myself be crushed under a burden of worry, if that won't achieve anything other than making me ill.
good move on your part. "no worries".
Oh how I wish I didn't worry so much. It has gotten better with age, I must admit. Maybe in Neverland...
I agree that it is so hard to not worry. My husband is good at letting go of things that are too big to carry, and I just seem to hold on.
Good on you girl. No worries is a state of mind, one which I subscribe and fail at daily...but I just keep on smiling and trying. It's all that I can do. So much to pick from, ya know???? What should I worry about today? So since I have a hard time making up my mind, or finding it most of the time, I just don't choose and just smile. Mental health issue I suppose, hehehehe.

I guess it takes practice! I'll just have to keep trying to remember not to worry.

As much as I can, I try to not worry. There are so much more important things in life you'd rather focus on than worrying. Have a beautiful day! Kellie xx
