Get all the facts! Half the worry in the world is caused by people trying to make decisions before they have sufficient knowledge on which to base the decision. Once you have all the facts, the problem usually works itself out.
Keep yor emotions out of your decision. Secure the facts in a clear, impartial manner. That is not an easy task when we are worried about something. When we are worried, our emotions are riding high, we only want the facts that will justify what we already think. Analyze and interpret the facts in an impartial way. Consider both sides of the case.
Move to Action: Don't agonize over a problem. Do not lose any sleep over worry. Simply ask yourself, "What am I worrying about?" then ask, "What can I do about it?"

This post holds a lot of truth. I have to fire an employee for the first time EVER and have been worrying like crazy about it. I know it is the right decision, but feel terrible about doing it. After reading this I know I just need to take a deep breath and realize there is nothing to worry about and to move on. Thanks Jolene!!
