Worrying is nothing but an unauthorized concern for results. First of all, it is a concern for results. Secondly, it is an unauthorized concern for results. You are trying to speculate about something you are not authorized to think about. You have no authorization, no locus standi to think about the future, to think about everything that will happen in the future, including the results of this and that, and your actions. And still you are speculating about them; that is worrying.

Conserve your energy. Train your thoughts. Discipline your little self. Time is precious; attention is precious. To waste time, it is not necessary that you must do something wasteful; it is enough to just worry.
