(Quote) "There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so." - Hamlet Act 2, Scene 2... In this quote, Hamlet gives us the key insight into "The Stress Fallacy." When we think of stress, it is with a negative connotation. Stress is bad for you. Stress kills. Stress causes irreversible harm. Author C. K. Murray invites the reader to think of stress in a positive light, in terms of its benefits. Turning the tables on stress begins with how we think about it. Although this is counterintuitive, to think of stress as beneficial, we nonetheless come to understand that our reaction to stress is what determines the effect it has on our lives. In this sense, this is an extremely interesting book. It is highly recommended for anyone whose life is affected by stress, in other words, everyone.Reviewed by Thomas Jerome BakerAuthor ofHow to Coach a Debate Team (Volume 1)
