When Thales was asked what was difficult he said, "To know oneself"; and what was easy, "To advise another." Marcus Aurelius counselled, "Let another pray, 'Save Thou my child,' but do thou pray, 'Let me not fear to lose him.'" Few of us are likely to attain this level; few, perhaps, aspire to do so. Nevertheless, the training which falls short of producing complete self-control may yet accomplish something in the way of fitting us, by taking the edge off our worry, to react more comfortably to our surroundings, thus not only rend-ering us more desirable companions, but contributing directly to our own health and happiness. Under the ills produced by faulty mental tendencies I do not include cancer and the like. This inclusion seems to me as subversive of the laws of nature as the cure of such disease by mental treatment would be miraculous. At the same time, serious disorders surely result from faulty mental tendencies.

Autorenporträt
George Lincoln Walton, M.D., was an American neurologist born on March 16, 1854, and passing away on January 17, 1941. A pioneering figure in the field of neurology, Walton made significant contributions to the understanding of how sensory health influences neurological and mental well-being. He authored several influential works, including Why Worry? , which offered practical advice on overcoming anxiety and stress, promoting healthier mental habits, and improving emotional resilience. Walton believed in a holistic approach to health, integrating the treatment of both the mind and body. In addition to Why Worry?, he wrote The Importance of Correcting Ocular Defects in Functional Nervous Disorders, a key text in linking physical health conditions to various neurological disorders. He also published other notable medical works, contributing valuable insights into the connection between the nervous system and overall well-being. Throughout his career, he remained dedicated to enhancing knowledge in neurology and mental health, leaving a lasting legacy in both fields. His pioneering work continues to influence contemporary medical practices, particularly in the ways physical and mental health are interconnected. Walton's contributions remain a valuable part of the history of neurology and medical literature.
