Often we increase our suffering by fearing our fears. We have an anxiety and then we worry that we are worrying. Today, let go of that second layer.
Sometimes we tie ourselves up in dramatic knots of self-imposed suffering because we are avoiding something. The best way to deal with it? Take one small step to tackle an important task, project, goal that you have been avoiding. You don't need to finish it. Just one step. That is often enough to break the building resistance. (Also, sometimes we avoid by imaging that other, less important tasks are urgent. Don't be fooled!)
