What is Stress?
February 23, 2008 on 9:02 pm | In Our Thinking |Stress is a result of ignorance. People get stressed because they do not realize that they have the power to control their lives. We are conditioned to believe that we are the little people in a huge world and everything that happens to us is out of our control. How many times have we heard people saying, “Everyone is pulling my strings.”
The truth is just the opposite. We can be in a total control of our lives. We are the ones that pull our own strings. We are the ones that have the power to change anything we want in our lives. The only catch here is that we need to have the knowledge that we can change our lives, and then we have to believe that we can, and finally expect that what we want it is going to happen.
When we understand the potential we have and I mean really understand it, we will never get stressed.
I just read a great blog on www.simplysolvedblog.net visit it. You will enjoy it too.

The best Thought Mail in last week (the one that got the most “Thank you” emails) is:
“We either move forward and grow or step back to safety.”
Abraham Maslow, 1908 – 1970 American Psychologist
Your Powerful Inner Self
P.S.
You have only two choices in life:
1. You take on a challenge and you grow and become better, and have a better life.
2. When faced with a challenge you move back to your comfort zone. You might feel good in your comfort zone. You might not feel happy, but feel safe. You might not like your job, but you stay where you are, because you know it, it is your comfort zone. A new job you don’t know might be scary. You might have too much responsibility.
Anything new is somewhat frightening or uncomfortable. But remember with the new, besides the fear of the unknown, comes excitement and a better life. So, put on your adventurer’s hat and go for the new, the exciting, the better, and discover the life that you thought never existed.

Amanda - you are correct again. I have observed that people that know they have control in their own lives and thier own emotional realm are so much happier, so much more alive than those that hide behind the excuse that everything is under someone else’s control.
