James B. Agape
“Worry and anxiety can drive you into a state of paralysis. I, for one, have experienced such, and I have figured it's best to face situations that drive up my anxiety head-on. That way, I don't allow my thoughts to talk me out of taking action. When I am worried, I try to focus on the present. Worry creeps up when we are constantly thinking about future outcomes. Live in the now and focus on getting through today.

Regaining Power and Control From The Overlords of Worry and Anxiety.”
James B. Agape, Pent Up Thoughts

Abhijit Naskar
“Action is the greatest prayer.”
