Worrywarts v. Smart Worriers

Worrywarts	Smart Worriers
Think about the worrisome concern over and over	Worry the concern through, then set it aside
Scare themselves by dwelling on risks and imagining the worst	Soothe themselves by challenging the worry and imagining positive possibilities
Judge and criticize themselves	Give themselves permission to be less than perfect
Stay awake all night worrying themselves sick	Distract themselves from the worry to sleep peacefully and wake up refreshed
Get trapped in a vicious cycle of worry and anxiety as life passes them by	Breathe deeply to relax and smell the flowers
