"The secret of health for both mind and body, is not to mourn the past, not to worry about the future, nor to anticipate troubles, but to live the present moment wisely and earnestly." - Buddha

STRESS MANAGEMENT
A lecturer, when explaining stress management to an audience, raised
a glass of water and asked, "How heavy is this glass of water? " The answers ranged from 20g to 500g. The lecturer replied, "The actual weight doesn't matter. It depends on how long you try to hold it up. "If I hold it for a minute, that's not a problem. If I hold it for an hour, I'll have an ache in my right arm. If I hold it for a day, you'll have to call an ambulance. "In each case, it's the same weight, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes. " He continued, "And that's the way it is with STRESS. If we carry our burdens all the time, sooner or later, as the burden becomes increasingly heavy, we won't be able to carry on. " "As with the glass of water, you have to put it down for a while and rest before holding it again. When we're refreshed, we can carry on with the burden. " "So, before you return home tonight, put the burden of work down. Don't carry it home. You can pick it up tomorrow. Whatever burdens you're carrying now, let them down for a moment if you can. " "Relax; pick them up later after you've rested. Life is short. Enjoy it! And then he shared some ways of dealing with the burdens of life: * Accept that some days you're the pigeon, and some days you're the statue. *Always keep your words soft and sweet, just in case you have to eat them. * Drive carefully. It's not only cars that can be recalled by their maker. * If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague. * If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth the cost. * Always keep in mind, it may be that your purpose in life simply to be an 'example' . * Never put both feet in your mouth at the same time, because then you won't have a leg to stand on. * Nobody cares if you can't dance well. Just get up and dance. * A truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery on a detour. |
