They all have one thing in common which is all affects you in different ways. We all have a fear of something happens to us whether you are rich or poor.
How does stress affect your life?
Stress, both good and bad. My life has been changed by many events that happened in my early life. When my father closes the business he built in his 20s about 25 years ago, I began to worry about the future, what kind of life I have to live with. Today, my father started a food company and run it well for almost 7 years. I still got stressed sometimes, because after he went through the downtime of his life, he became really emotional and controlling. He stops me from being a veterinary which is my dream job. So I got stressed and feared about the future because I don't know what I am going to do.
Identify three stress management techniques you are going to use to decrease your stress levels. How can you apply these strategies to your life?
We always have a little monkey in our mind to interrupt us and procrastinate. So I have 3 three stress management techniques of my own that are "fun", "easy and organize" and "rewards".
1.FUN: Making things fun is a great way for me to reduce my stress level. If I have to do something and I can't get away from it then I start to think about how can I make it less boring or even have fun doing it. For instance, when I working out or exercising, I imagine that I am fighting against a monster and I don't want to be its lunch.....
2.EASY and ORGANIZE: When something is easy and organized, it's become more possible to achieve. Instead of setting goals like lose weight, it's more achievable to set goals like "eat 400kcal a day" or "run one kilometer every day". Separate your goals to tiny simple and easy pieces can increase the confidence for you to start. Believe is key to achieve anything.
3. REWARDS: You will need some rewards for yourself to build a habit. After the habits have been built, you can decrease your stress levels when you doing something that makes you stressful but you already built a habit which you know that it will come with a reward.
How will these strategies help you manage your stress?
When you get stressed, you might be afraid of something happens to you. So think about the coming up troubles and get prepared. Making things fun, easy, organize and come with rewards to prepare the solution effectively.Â
