Every body is talking about stress but few have practical scientific tools to deal effectively with it. Here are a few ideas which I would like you to consider.
- Stress is the response – not the event or the situation or the block to your plans for success.
- Expect trouble in your life and when it comes in the form of difficulties, hardships, setbacks, disappointments, heartaches or rejection, know that deep inside, you have all that it takes to overcome.
- Stir up your belief, let it swell like a tide in your chest, use your hands and push your self confidence up higher and higher.
- Learn to look trouble right in the eye and say ” I can handle this”. Shout it out with conviction, “I can handle this”
- Right in the midst of the storm, ask yourself what do I want to happen in my life, what outcome do I really desire. What would serve me best. Know the outcome that you desire.
- Focus on what you want to happen and go to work to produce that outcome.
- Remember, no one is coming to the rescue, you have to do it yourself.
- Get help if you must but sharpen your own axe and depend on yourself to win.
- Winning is about your willingness and determination to pay the price to feel the way you want to feel and have the things you want to have and be the person you want to be.
- When troubles strike marshal all your resources and move towards the fulfillment of your goals.
- In the face of stress, beware. Don’t mope or grumble, don’t nurse animosities, don’t harbour hatred, don’t register wrongs, don’t blame, don’t plan revenge or wallow in pity, ask yourself:”What is the best use of my time and my energy right now.”
- Believe with unshakable certainty that you have the ability to excel no matter what the circumstances may be.
- That’s how you respond to the difficulties of your life and triumph over stress
