Daily Life and Stress


Life and Stress

Anyone can admit that stress is a part of life , and it isn't going anywhere, no matter how hard you try. Trust me, is just isn't. So you might as well save yourself a lot of wasted effort and just embrace stress. Harness it. Control it, don't let it control you. It sounds difficult, but here's how.

If you feel uncertain about something, make it certain. Like if they're cutting back on employees at work and you're worried you might be next. Or say you married young and wished you would have furthered your education after high school. Don't just sit around worrying about 'what if' or 'what is', that will get you nothing but more suffering. React! Channel your emotions into retaliation! Apply that stress and uncertainty into your to-do list. Work at the top of your game, go above your job description, and make sure you're a valuable part of the team. Apply for Financial Aid, Scholarships, Student Loans, study online or at night, whatever you have to do. With discipline, channeling your uncertainty into making it certain will ultimately make you feel less stressed out about it, and will help you excel in other areas, such as professionally and physically in the above examples.

 It is ALWAYS important to take a breath, especially if you honestly feel you're pushing your limit. Don't forget to de-stress too! Enjoy your hard work once in awhile. Find time to unplug, unwind, and enjoy the little things in life. Sometimes we're so wrapped up in life that we forget to stop and smell the roses, 
per se.





There truly is beauty in every day moments, and stopping to appreciate them once and a while will give you a greater appreciation for life. They say life happens when you are busy making other plans. I don't fully believe that. I don't think you can map out every event of your life, but that you can have a life plan and reach goals and dreams. But I also found out long ago, that although you are 'building a life' when you are young, this IS life. Remember to stop and live it here and there.  <3
