Overeating, undereating, and excess alcohol and caffeine consumption are a few of the many ways we cope with the pressures of daily life. Ironically, these behaviors and others familiar to us all, such as procrastination and verbal self abuse, rarely reduce the stress. More often they cause us to feel worse. Stress is a mental, physical and behavioral response to a variety of stimuli. Contrary to popular belief, stress is not necessarily caused by an acutely upsetting event.
Stress actually results from everday experiences, as well as unexpected changes.
Stress can cause physical and mental exhaustion and may increase your likelihood of developing disease. Some health professionals believe individuals who view stress in a positive manner may not suffer the negative effects associated with stress. This improves your ability to use time efficiently and effectively. It also helps deal with one of the greatest time robbers, procrastination. Select the same time every day to write your list.
