When you feel too much stress, take the time to look for solutions. Control what you can. Determine what stressful situations in your life you can control and which situations you can't. Focus on changing those stressful events that you can. Learn to accept and adjust to those situations you can't change.
Life change is stressful.
We resist change, even when we are reasonably sure that the end results will be beneficial. The results of change are never guaranteed and most people fear the unknown. So people stay in unpleasant dead-end jobs, in destructive relationships, and remain lonely rather than taking the risks needed to change those conditions. Keep a journal. Get a notebook, or start a journal on your computer Be consistent about writing, setting aside time each day Try not to edit your words.
