“While it is usually a good idea to follow your instincts or feelings, this is the wrong approach when you’re anxious. You have to do the opposite of your instincts.

That’s because anxiety is paradoxical. The more you try to defend yourself, the more frightened you become.

The more the miser tries to protect himself from being poor, the more he worries about being poor. The more nonassertive you are, the more you fear other people. Your efforts to protect yourself make you more vulnerable.”
