Just today I may have finally actually realized that there is literally no need to worry about anything. Although I have said this to myself many times, thanks to social media and forward messages from friends. But it only matters when you learn something consciously and experientially. Then, the lesson is called a 'realization'.
So, worry itself is nature's wonderful little trick which has ensured our survival for so long. Worry keeps us fighting for our wellbeing. It is our very innate quality to worry. But the very life as we know on this planet is simply, not perfect - yet. We are born in a very interesting stage of human evolution. We have our strong primal genetic code still intact which makes us much alike with the rest of the animal species with qualities like anger, fear, stress, reproduction, emotions etc. And yet we have an equally strong and excellent cerebral activity which enables us to consciously choose to say NO to our primal instincts unlike most of the other living species and it enables us to do things like thinking, creating, empathizing, wondering, and gives us the ultimate ability to rise above our survival instincts and do feats which are only humanly possible. Well, at least on this planet as we know of.
We need to ask ourselves - "What in this world is worth doing if it's not making me and the rest of the world happy - which is, the ultimate human state of being?" Why should we even helplessly worry about something while we could choose to consciously act upon that survival call when it happens? If I die today, that will be the end of my chapter. Then what would have been the benefit of all the worry I've unconsciously let myself go through all my life? The irony is that today science says too much worry could actually kill someone faster or deteriorate their brain function.
Fear, the parental figure of worry is one of those primal codes which conflicts with the modern day human who lives in a world so alien to our survival code that it is struggling to know when to intervene or not. All our ancestral beings have lived in the wilderness - the very cradle of life itself where the primal codes have been the most important tools for survival. But Human evolution has rapidly changed these dynamics and today we live in a world where we need our newly developed cerebral activity much more than our survival code. But the survival code does not yet know when or not to intervene, thus causing the chaos. We worry about non-consequential things like penis sizes and breast sizes while failing to recognize grave threats to our individual and racial existences like pollution, ill effects on our bodies from drug abuse etc. All these problems I've mentioned are ripples from the modern human inventions that the primal code does not necessarily understand. Have you ever seen an animal worry about their genitalia, and did you observe how well animals in the wild groom themselves?
Most of us would realize that when we look back at things we've spent countless hours worrying in the past are things which would not have really mattered anyway. What really matters is that at the end of the day you are always in your ideal state of being - happy and with the healthiest stage of cerebral activity. Being happy is not a gift coming from someone sitting above. It is simply the state in which the life form thrives and becomes capable of utilizing the cerebral activity in the best possible way for their own good and for others around them. And least to speak of, it makes us much more capable of living in the modern world

So, basically, not doing something is better than trying and helplessly worrying about it. Whatever you do must make you happier.
So, why worry?
