Six Stress Prevention Tips
Six Stress Prevention Tips
The child is in me still and sometimes not so still.
-Fred Rogers
- Seek and kill. Take a few minutes every day to identify stressors in your life and find ways to reduce or eliminate them.
- Commit to the positive. Don't rely on self-destructive ways of coping with stress — drinking, drugs, overeating.
- Be your own personal secretary. People who keep lists of things to do really do more things.
- Immunize yourself. Through exercise, thought management, and the daily practice of relaxation techniques, you will be in a better position to face stressors.
- Make a little plan. Spend a few minutes every morning planning your day. You will waste less time, get more done, and feel less stressed.
- And make a big plan. Planning your future is a great way of exercising more control over your life.
