Coping With Stress
Recognise what it is that causes you stress - in yourself and in your particular situation.
Learn to live with imperfection - in yourself and in others.
Learn to delegate and share responsibility - the world won't collapse if you let go!
Allow yourself the luxury of a good self-image - others can't think well of you if you don't think well of yourself.
Allow yourself to express your feelings - leaking is better than bursting!
Work for a consensus - cooperation is better than coercion.
Find and keep a strong group of friends - support is not just for the feeble.
Try not to make all your major life changes at once.
Discover the word "No".
Don't compete all the time.
Reduce noise levels - listen to the silence.
Slow down your movements - it will help to slow down your mind.
Be aware of your breathing - learn to breathe well.
Truth is not only stranger than fiction, it causes much less anxiety - stick to it.
Learn to relax properly - practise for at least a few minutes every day.
