Chronological Planning And Psychological Worry

Nithyananda, Worries
There are two things to understand: chronological planning and psychological worry. Chronological planning is needed to set up a schedule for tasks or projects to be completed. For example, you decide, 'I will wake up at six a.m, do my meditation, then take a shower at seven a.m, and leave for the office by eight a.m. I"ll finish work by five PM. and return home by six PM

This type of planning is perfectly alright. But before you come to each task on your list, you start creating anxiety about it. You think of the pros and cons of each, etc. This is called psychological worry! This is not needed. Chronological planning is fine, but psychological worry is not needed. It is like trying to cross a bridge before it comes. He cares without worry, that"s all. Why contemplate over the bridge even before it comes?
