Summary
Listen to episode 984 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Conquering Anxiety, and Worry. Adapted from the book Pushing to the Front by Orison Swett Marden.
Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The monster of worry dogs us from the cradle to the grave. There is no occasion so sacred but it is there. Unbidden it comes to the wedding and the funeral alike. It is at every reception, every banquet; it occupies a seat at every table.
No human mind can estimate the havoc and ruin wrought by worry. It has ever forced genius to do the work of mediocrity; it has caused more failures, more broken hearts, more blasted hopes, than any other one cause since the dawn of the world.
