How are you doing in your efforts to live a life of lower stress? What types of things are you doing? Are you exercising regularly, getting more rest…better rest? Have you reduced your number of commitments? Have you tried to focus on things you can control, and change your mindset to accept the things that you can’t control? How is any or all of this working for you? The difficult thing about measuring success in the area of “lower stress” is that most of us will always feel stressors. How do we know that anything that we’re doing to counter the effects of stress are actually working? It’s hard to prove a negative. But let me tell you this…when I exercise regularly, my mind is in a better place. When I’m well rested, I can handle the events of the day better… While we may not be able to measure what “less stress” looks like, I can tell you that doing the things to lower stress in your life do actually result in a life of lower stress.
