How Not To Worry: The Remarkable Truth of How a Small Change Can Help You Stress Less and Enjoy Life More Paperback – Illustrated, May 7, 2012

Amazing info !

Divided into two sections - Section One - Understand and Section Two - Move on - this is an interesting book for those of us who find we dwell on things far too much. Some people worry about what might happen and others worry about what has happened. A certain amount of worry could be necessary but too much can spoil your enjoyment in life and wear you down so that you feel stressed all the time which is not good for you either mentally or physically.Understanding why we worry can help us along the path of reducing or even eliminating our worries. Making a concerted effort to stop ourselves worrying where worry will serve no useful purpose using the techniques described in this book may well help us to enjoy life again instead of being weighed down by our worries. The book describes how we use the three `As' to tackle our worries - Awareness of what exactly we're worrying about; Analysis of our worries - where we look at the subject of our worries in a rational way. This could include looking back at events form our past which may be over-influencing the present worry. The third `A' is action - and helps us look at what actions we can take to address our worry and maybe eliminate it entirely.I found the book interesting and informative and if you are a worrier - or think you are a worrier - then this book can probably help you reduce the worry you feel on a regular basis. Even though I don't consider myself to be a worrier I found the book gave me food for thought. There is a list of further reading for those interested in the subject and various books and websites are mentioned in the text.

Was a little hard to follow sometimes. I'm really not into this type of writing, even though I need it badly. I'm a lazy reader and when I read, I usually do it for relaxation and entertainment. I definetly do need the information in this book though.

Stress

More worrisome reading all the reasons we worry.

save the money, there is no useful information in this book

I found this book through the app "Uptime", which provides key insights from self-help books like this one. The points and strategies taken from the book that were listed in the app seemed really useful, so I downloaded the audiobook from Audible. Sadly, the actual book was not as enjoyable or useful as I had hoped it would be. The author spends a lot of time explaining the purpose and structure of the book and how it should be used. He goes off on tangents and makes analogies. He also tries to make jokes but they fall short. I couldn't get past the first chapter or two. Hope this helps you!

I've read nearly all Paul McGee's books and his latest offering cannot fail to inspire. I have utilised aspects of Paul's material in my work and personal life and was excited to hear Paul had been working on another new book to help others on their way to a better life.It assists the reader in understanding how they can develop strategies to help get all aspects of worry, stress. anxiety into perspective for a better life. Paul offers a no-nonsense, understandable and humorous approach to the subject which can't fail to inspire. He doesn't delve into psychobable but makes it real by talking about his own experiences of worry, stress and dealing with change as well as that of his family and friends, which really helps the reader apply it to their own life experiences. This book I know will become a real reference book to dip into for me and my family just as SUMO (Paul's philosophy and book on life strategies for success) has and continues to be. As humans we are all very different in make up and perspective but we all worry in varying degrees and it is refreshing to realise from reading this book that sometimes people love to to worry rather than take action to minimise the effects of worry on others and their own health.I am from a family who worries - and after soaking up all this book has to offer in a weekend of reading and reflecting, I would highly recommend everyone to invest in a copy - I firmly believe that whatever your age, perspective on life or background - you can't fail to relate with the issues of worry that Paul explains in such a creative way for the reader whilst at the same time helping you develop a strategy to help you overcome the effects of worry on your life. In a world where we focus on the negative aspects of life more than positive it is refreshing that Paul has again offered a pro-active solution to one of life's constant elements - we just need to stop, understand and move on.......Great read, totally inspired and worrying less already......

A very helpful and practical book. Paul McGee explains how the various parts of the brain work, why we sometimes become worried and apprehensive about things, and gives practical tips and advice on how to reduce worrying. I have read books before which were all about breathing exercises, etc, which are probably more helpful in cases of physical stress or anxiety attacks, but what I needed was something to help me be less apprehensive and worried about future events (worrying about all the stuff that might go wrong, etc), and this book fits the bill.

I approached this book with few worries (I know I am lucky) but I have read all Paul’s books so why not this one, it may help me with friends who have worries. I have learned so much, looked hard at my life and will make some changes. I will start to exercise, I will let go of the one issue in my part that I revisit every now and again, I will develop some imaginary friends. I hope this has piqued your interest as this book is well worth reading wherever you are on the worry scale. Highly recommended
