Worry is full of empty calories and because you're not giving your fear anything useful to digest, your fear remains hungry, continues to binge on your negative thoughts, and eventually becomes obese.
When fears swell from unproductive negative thinking (i.e. worrying) they're difficult to make space for because they're too big; they overwhelm your emotional landscape. They're too heavy to carry, and so they hold you back from going where you want to go.
Fear is unavoidable, worry is avoidable.
Fear is deep, worry is shallow.
Fear is powerful and any power can be harnessed positively. Worry is weak and can't be harnessed productively.
Fear guides you towards personal growth and an expansion of the heart—accepting fear is rewarded with greater possibilities. Worry guides you towards insularity and shrinks your ability to connect to others—accepting worry is "rewarded" with greater anxiety.
Fear is healthy. Worry makes you sick.
