How to Stop Worrying

Rob Dial
About this episode
Episode 195 - People worry too much and most of the time they worry about things that never actually happen. We have such a short time on this Earth and such a limited amount of brain power each day, why would we want to waste either worrying about things that probably won't happen anyways. In this episode I talk about worry, and why it is a waste and serves no function in your life.
