For me it means faith without works is dead or until you get out of your comfort zone and do something nothing is likely to change. Once you done your best what comes next is often out of your control.
You can still worry (we're all human after all...) but no need to feel paralyzed.
You've taken positive action and are waiting for the results . Now what you do during this period of wait is up to you. I have a someone I can talk with and I also go running.
Emotional sobriety is the ability to balance the ups/downs of life as we trudge the road of happy destiny.
