Stop Worrying About The Economy!

I think the best advice so far that I have heard regarding the current economic condition is what I recently read in an article located on Web Business Freedom, stop worrying about it and live your life. Obviously worry ourselves sick to the point of sleepless nights is not going to make the economy turn around any faster then it is.
Apparently, last September the economy was on the brink of collapse, literally within a couple of hours. (As if you thought it couldn’t get any worse.) Well as scary as that is, my question (to myself and you), what the hell am I supposed to do about it? My best answer is, nothing. Or more to the point: nothing different from what I was doing five minutes ago, which is working, like I do every day. Working on my plan, and trying to grow my own business to the best of my abilities.
In life and business, there are only so many things that are in our control, that we can change or make a difference in. Then there are other’s that no matter what we do, the situation will never change because it is quite frankly, our of our control. So work on the thing’s that you can control, change what you can and stop worrying yourself sick over the things you cant control.
What are your thoughts on this piece of advice?

I agree wholeheartedly. Worry takes away from productive time you can use to focus on what you and I can do right now to improve or maintain our business. Worry is like a virus, low-grade, that zaps your creative energy. And worry, whether you like it or not, will seep in unnoticed, so notice as much as you can and work around it. Kind of like a pimple – treat it lightly and don’t pick at it – just let it be and move on productively.

I disagree. More people should be worrying about the worsening economy. The less your thing about it the less you are going to be prepared to protect your wealth, your job and your family.
