How to Stop Worrying and Start Living

Naziv je knjige , Dale Carnagie, koju ja nekad uzmem, kad me uhvate nezeljene misli (a znaju me dobro uhvatiti), procitam koji odlomak...
Znam se zaglaviti, sam sebe zarobiti, cak i onda kada nemam valjani razlog. Valjda sam takve naravi; brinem i vise nego sto treba. Zanimljivo za knjigu i autora je, sto je napisana prije 70 godina, sto ce reci, da su ljudi uvijek nosili brige u sebi i da se nije nista promjenilo, bez obzira na tehnoloska i druga dostignuca. U covjekovoj prirodi je da brine, neko manje, neko vise, tako da je ova knjiga samo podsjetnik na nesto sto vec znas, samo sto to trebas da i u zivotu primjenis. Manje da brines...
