Summary

This quote emphasizes that worry is often more harmful than actual work. The reason for this is that worry is a common emotional response that many people experience, whereas the act of working requires effort and dedication. Since worry can consume individuals mentally and physically, it can negatively affect their overall well-being. In contrast, work can bring fulfillment and productivity, leading to positive outcomes. Ultimately, the quote suggests that the prevalence of worry and its destructive power make it a greater threat to people's health and happiness compared to the act of working.

The demons of despair will always try to hold you back from enjoying your life. Either they will try to haunt you with your failures of your past or torment you with your worries of the future. Refuse to entertain them by rising above and staying in the present. They can't have any power over you...if you don't allow them to!
