agree to an extent. the key to lowering your stress levels is to either:ked your life up beyond belief listening to people you never should have and just sit and stare at the walls all day instead. You get depressed, but on balance I find that being depressed is less painful than being stressed. a] improve your capacity to cope with your workload - i.e. delegate, more staff, better systems.
b] remove the triggers that are causing you stress, or at least recognise what they are so that you can address them.
c] stop caring.
c is an indicator you need to change jobs/career.
Work out what you're stressed about and then categorise each item in terms of "Can I DO anything about it" - I find that things fall into 3 categories:
1. Stuff I can do something about now
2. Stuff I will be able to do something about sometime
3. Stuff I can't do anything about
For the stuff I can do something about now, I work out what to do and start doing it. For the stuff I can do something about sometime, I work out what I need to be able to take action and try to move towards that. For the stuff I can't do anything about, I accept it and try to stop worrying about it.
Most of this thinking goes on while I'm exercising as I find that is a great way to sort out my head and get things back in proportion.
