Stress Anxiety...So it didn't turn out exactly like you wanted?

Stress Anxiety

"Defeat is not the worst of failures. Not to have tried is the true failure."
- George E. Woodberry -

So it didn't turn out exactly like you wanted?

The challenges you experience, would I be accurate in saying it's very painful but you'll learn a lesson or two here that'll help you!

There's no such thing as a perfect life, everyone, no matter how wonderful their life may seem on the surface has a fair share of challenges, unhappiness, tragedies and problems to deal with.

Dear Friend,

Thank you for your valuable time, you're much appreciated.

The main difference between joy and depression is what you pay attention to because you live in a hectic lifestyle and everyday you're faced with multiple challenges in all areas of life...

In those unconscious (automatic) moment-to-moment thoughts, how does the hidden stress and anxiety cause you to make decisions which effect your attitudes and core beliefs?

How do you handle your daily issues so you don't feel stressed out?

Hey, whats more important is the habit of shifting your focus on what's good in your life...

Let's face it, you're still alive so being grateful for how lucky you are is a blessing because you've the opportunity to solve, get through difficulties to go forward with a positive attitude.

Maybe you didn't realize that over stimulation of your senses can trigger depression and illness?

It's truly interesting to know that stress plays havoc on your immune system in it's ability to effectively fight off illness. Stress has a major impact on the body which can cause you to feel tired with changes in energy levels.

Stress, the emotional state can be related to 'feeling' life is out of control, you're powerless to change your circumstances or that you didn't meet certain goals, expectations or needs, etc...

For example:

You didn't win the stupid argument but you're more experienced now.

The job you've always wanted didn't come your way.

You got turned down so Friday night is down and lonely.

Well at least you've still got tomorrow, there's another chance...plenty of fish in the sea.

There are better jobs...now you can do what you really love.

How do you keep the set-backs and challenges in proper perspective?

How do you control how you perceive challenges, delays, mistakes and motives of other people?

Actually you can shrink them by adjusting "how you look at it."

Hmmm did you notice anything in particular...right away?

If you're focusing on the (negative outcome) you're magnifying your energy and efforts on what you don't want...or on what's wrong draws you deeper into the state of being more stressed and anxious.

It's the inability to let go or deal with stuff that causes stress and the resulting anxiety!

This build of frustration, anger, unhappy, dissappointment, jealousy, confusion and hopelessness which in turn can cause physical symptoms of all kinds including insomnia, stomach problems, body pains, and a host of diseases, etc, etc...you get my drift.

The first step is becoming aware when you're thinking stressful thoughts and shift your focus or attention by keeping things in perspective.

This, as you know, is called the law of (cause and effect.)

Find what you want (cause) and discover what caused it to happen (effect).

This is a two-step process is basically in seeing and doing things differently...so you're taking control and feeling better, calmer, and actually struggling with less resistance on your part.

You've a choice to let go, release and be free of any unconscious habit of holding onto problems
because failure, challenges, set-backs and delays, etc are a normal part of life and they don't have to be over exaggerated.

Keep in mind this process is not necessarily a conscious one, most of the time you're not even aware that you do this as problems keep popping up...

Would you agree...it's easier to shrink something down so you direct your mind and don't worry about negative stuff so much?

You can learn just one simple thought and behavior release skill which can help you to change your perspective for the better, but it takes some practice to keep going full steam ahead...

Personally I can't think of many life skills that are more important. Can you?

Want to feel better?

Want to win more in pressure packed situations?

Want to feel confident, self-assured, at peace?

Want the anger to subside?

Want feelings of hopelessness to diminish?

They won't be "unconscious" (automatic) unless you put your practice experiencing your thoughts moving into spaced repetition.

It's the way your brain needs it to be. Doing this process, you'll begin to feel how you take control of how you feel.

You'll then do what you want yourself to do...

Learning a new skill might be an inconvenience but now that you understand you're doing your best to respond to the changes, when this is done, you'll be back on track living the life you want to live.

Thanks for reading, come back soon.
