Have you ever wondered how many things you worry about every day? How many tabs are permanently open in your mind and how many come and go making your heart beat a little faster and louder?

Have you ever tried to record your thoughts the exact moment they occur? Probably not, because that’s how you’d spend most of your day writing on a piece of paper. Because the truth is that there are many thoughts we think, many things we worry about. But is it worth it?

Is it worth it to be permanently with a fast heart for all that happened or what you worry about not happening? If you’re looking for a way to see what’s really worth worrying about and what’s not, we’ll try to clear things up a bit by rounding up here the 33 things you should finally stop caring about.

  1. What do other people think of you? Certainly we all “play” by the rules imposed by a society, but within a reasonable framework. Does it really matter that much to you if you made a bad impression on the manager of the apartment building by not greeting him in the hallway, or if your colleague likes your outfit today?
  2. For your cellulite. There are many factors that cause cellulite, and for some there is nothing you can do. Pay attention to exercise and proper nutrition and let them do the work. It certainly won’t disappear when you look at it in the mirror or when you hide it under loose clothing.
  3. The choices others have made in their lives. Stop worrying so much about why your aunt divorced after so many years of marriage, why your bestie is having a relationship with someone much younger than her, and whether the neighbor’s kid is gay. As long as other people’s choices don’t harm you or someone else, leave them out of your thoughts.
  4. What is your ex doing? What’s a man to do, he goes on with his life just like you do.
  5. What every celebrity eats for breakfast. If it’s in the context of getting new breakfast ideas I’ll accept it. Otherwise, there is no reason to worry about what celebrities are doing.
  6. Finding your other half. Your other half does not exist. Be your other half and everything will work out.
  7. How much money do other people earn? Especially if those others are unrelated to you and you don’t even know what exactly they are doing. Focus on yourself, on making the money you think you deserve and need, and leave others aside.
  8. The wrinkles. We all grow up and at some point you have to accept it. Everyone grows in their own unique way, and that’s great.
  9. Likes and followers. And who saw your Instagram stories? Unless you’re 15 years old and just got social media. Then, I fold.
  10. Be productive all the time. What a pressure to always have a full schedule. Relax and try to clear your mind during the day. After all, doing something all the time does not mean that you are doing it right or that it gives you joy.
  11. Don’t be unpleasant. And you will be late for your appointment, and you will forget your mom’s birthday, and you will make mistakes at work and you will burn the food. You can’t have them all around you, and the sooner you realize that, the happier you’ll be.
  12. Constantly saying yes to dating suggestions. It may be easy at a younger age to be everywhere all the time but as you get older it becomes impossible. Learn to clarify the suggestions you have and only do something that will make you feel good. Between us, if you go somewhere where you don’t even get burned, it seems…
  13. What will you eat on vacation? Will there be good coffee where you stay? Will you be able to sit in the taverns or will you have to make a reservation? Will there be non-alcoholic drinks at the beach bars where you will be? Chill out. Even if you go to Gavdos, you will find something to eat. Besides, have you ever heard of anyone starving to death on their summer vacation?
  14. And in general, what will you eat? Stop obsessively counting calories unless there is a medical reason to do so.
  15. If the boy you’ve been flirting with for the past few days likes you. Pay a little more attention to whether he really likes you and let what he does.
  16. What will people say? Unless you are 85 years old and live in some isolated village. But then again, people will say what they want even if you sit still and just breathe. You care;
  17. What others have and what they think. One is angry and the other is irritated and you feel like you are somehow at fault. Ask! Thinking about it and not talking about it doesn’t accomplish anything. If now the others have something and they don’t tell you what, that’s their problem.
  18. For things that have already happened. There are very few things you can fix 100%. In most cases you can simply see what went wrong and try not to do it again in the future.
  19. Don’t let your food fail. It happens to even the best of families. No matter how anxious you are watching the chicken cook in the oven, the result will not be affected.
  20. If you follow the dreams others have for you. No, the only dreams you should care about are your own.
  21. Don’t run out of battery on your phone while you’re out and about. Another stress too. Make sure you have your mobile phone charged and have a power bank with you in case you know you will be away from home for many hours. And if it closes, what happened?
  22. About how many books other people read. The same goes for how many movies/series other people watch. Not everyone has the same priorities or time.
  23. About whether the house is clean enough. Clean as much as you can and as much as you can bear. From then on, worrying all the time doesn’t accomplish anything.
  24. If you hang out a lot on social media. Let’s say you fool around as long as you need it, as long as it helps you in some area of ​​your life and as long as it doesn’t affect you negatively. And let’s hope we’re right.
  25. Don’t trip and fall in front of people. Know that it is very likely to happen to you just because you keep thinking about it.
  26. For the things you don’t have. It is much more constructive to focus on the things you already have or how important the things you want are and whether they are worth getting.
  27. For the “what ifs”. This is a thought that no one can answer. You make the decisions in your life always weighing the data you have at that moment. No one knows what would have happened if you had studied something else, if you had done your master’s degree abroad, if you had not divorced. And in the end, what does it matter?
  28. About whether you have the “perfect body”. Really, what is the perfect body and who judges that?
  29. About whether others like you or love you. The more you care the deeper you fall into the trap of becoming someone else. Love yourself and let what others do.
  30. Because you don’t know everything. The strange thing would be to know everything. Learn to ask the right questions, learn something new as time goes by and you’ll see how much you won’t care that you don’t know everything.
  31. About whether you will have time to do it all. And we don’t mean during the day but during your life. It is good to care about whether what you will do will be of value to you and not about how much it will be.
  32. About what your psychologist thinks about you. The sooner you stop wanting to make a good impression and please your psychologist, the more meaningful your treatment will be.
  33. About whether the ones you love will be fine. Throughout our lives we lose people around us. No, the ones you love won’t always be fine, so make sure you’re there when they need you and make every moment count.
