"La preocupación es un ciclo de pensamientos ineficientes girando alrededor de un centro de miedo"

Simplified Meaning:

When you're worried, your mind keeps thinking about the same problems over and over again without finding any solutions. It's like a hamster running on a wheel and not getting anywhere. This happens because the thoughts are driven by fear, which makes it hard to think clearly and come up with effective ways to handle the situation. For example, imagine a student who has an important test coming up. If they spend all their time worrying about failing instead of studying, they waste valuable time and energy on negative thoughts. Instead, they could focus on preparing for the test to reduce their fear. So, it's better to recognize when you're worrying and try to take practical steps to address what you're afraid of. This way, you use your thoughts productively instead of getting stuck in a loop.
