I want you to take a moment and think about stress in your life and how it affects you. We all have some sort of stress and it can overwhelm even the strongest person. The things that bring you anxiety — too much to do, not enough money, a job you have to have but hate, people that surround you making excessive demands of your time. Even the calmest person in the world can be pushed over the edge.
What if you view your responses to stressful situations as helpful? How you view stress matters. What if your pounding heart is preparing you to face a challenge instead of dreading it? What if your heightened awareness gives you an opportunity to analyze the situation to your advantage? Interesting thoughts. Think about it. You can trust yourself to face your challenges and that you will be supported.
Take a few moments and watch this talk. Perhaps you too will find some wisdom in what is presented and change your attitude towards stress in your life. I know it has made a difference in my own life and how I deal with it. What do you have to lose? All those things that give you anxiety and a reduction in your reaction to these things in your life.
