Stress Management I have heard that "STRESS CAN KILL". Can it? One of the many lessons that I have learned in life is how to "just let things go" when I have to. I think it's a lesson learned out of necessity for my health. When I was raising my daughters, the stress that came with handling so many burdens as a single mom gave me many health problems, both physically and mentally. But I wasn't fully aware of them at the time. I knew that I never felt good or happy but I was not a priority at that time. I did not fully confront MY problems until I sold my house, changed my job, and my daughters grew up and became self sufficient. Then, it was damage control time---stomach specialists, psychiatrists, psychotherapists, etc. I found out that the stress was slowly killing me. It took over 10 years to get "ME" back together again (I felt like Humpty Dumpty!) Now, I have a low tolerance for stress, I think it's called "peace of mind". Yes, my children and their children have problems that upset me. Yes, there are people around me at work who are unhappy and voice it all the time. Yes, my boss can be frustrating. Yes, the state of the world can be very upsetting. BUT I leave the work problems at work and have learned how not to dwell on what I have no control over. I make it a point to laugh everyday no matter what is happening, dance when I can, cry when I have to, and love every chance I get. Some things in life still sadden me but I now have the skills to handle them better. And most of all, I feel good. I think it's important to soak up all of the lessons that life teaches it and to learn something new everyday. The older you become the wiser you will become. Don't look back. Just keep going forward. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A lecturer, when explaining stress management to an audience, raised a glass of water and asked, "How heavy is this glass of water?" Answers called out ranged from 20g to 500g. The lecturer replied, "The absolute weight doesn't matter. It depends on how long you try to hold it. If I hold it for a minute, that's not a problem. If I hold it for an hour, I'll have an ache in my right arm. If I hold it for a day, you'll have to call an ambulance. In each case, it's the same weight, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes." He continued, "And
that's the way it is with stress management. If we carry our burdens
all the time, sooner or later, as the burden becomes increasingly heavy,
we won't be able to carry on. When we're refreshed, we can carry on
with the burden. * Accept that some days you're the pigeon, and some days you're the statue. * Always keep your words soft and sweet, just in case you have to eat them. * Always read stuff that will make you look good if you die in the middle of it. * Drive carefully. It's not only cars that can be recalled by their maker. * If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague. * If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it. * It may be that your sole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others. * Never put both feet in your mouth at the same time, because then you won't have a leg to stand on. * Nobody cares if you can't dance well. Just get up and dance. * Since it's the early worm that gets eaten by the bird, sleep late. * The second mouse gets the cheese. * When everything's coming your way, you're in the wrong lane. * Birthdays are good for you. The more you have, the longer you live.
