Being purposeful in our lives is what creates peace of mind. This translates into being intentional about what we do every day. When we stop obsessing over everything, we often find that things work out for the better. If we fear something, it may indicate that we lack knowledge or understanding. It is essential to comprehend the situation before jumping to conclusions. At times, anxiety can lead to anger and cause harm to perceived threats.
