Stress reactions can be good indicators of where to start looking. Problems that cause you stress in your life are like obstacles on the track, or engine trouble, or a bumpy ride. It might even be a train robbery. Problems can either motivate you, teach you something, or wear you down. The choice is yours.
Stress is a reaction to any event in our lives.
It is a normal part of life. It's what motivates us to get up in the morning and keep going all day. Stress can be revitalizing, energizing and rewarding or it can affect us in unhealthy ways. When faced with a stressor, we can let it take its toll on us or we can take a look at its meaning. We can read, talk to others, and look within ourselves for the information that we need to deal with our stressors.
