We are so compelled to wanting to do well, that we constantly question whether what we are doing now is enough to create the Person we ought to be in future. We question whether or not we are going to be successful or not, and this is the very act that leads to endless days of stress.

Because the future holds so many possibilities and it often seems like our present situations can dictate our future. We fail to realise that we have more control over our future than we are lead to believe.

I used to have this problem as well. Every morning I thought about the bad things that could happen in future but I understood that it just became aa bad habit for me and was because of boring unexciting life.Bringing fresh new goodexperiences in your life may change your views.

You're nervous about what could happen. You've heard of all the unfortunate outcomes and you're afraid of what could happen.

Because you haven't made the conscious decision to live in the present yet.
I like this quote: "If you want to conquer the anxiety of life, live in the moment, live in the breath."

The future is a scary place because it is filled with unknowns. If it makes you feel stressed then try not to focus on too many things at once. Analyse the different things you are concerned about and focus on each one individually. Once you have identified a concern think about where would you want this situation to be to make you feel happy about it instead of stressed. When you have a destination you can then find the steps needed to get there. Write all of this down as a list of solutions to the problems that are making you feel stressed. Having a list of solutions rather than a head full of problems should be a lot less stressful!
