Stress Tip..by
G. Gaynor McTigue..MON
6/19/06 Don't talk so fast. Have
you noticed how much faster the pace of normal conversation is becoming? How we
rush our words, leaving no openings, anxious to complete a thought before someone
else rushes in? Often having to scold our listeners with "let me finish"?
It's a sign of our hurried times. And as much as fast talking is driven by stress,
it can cause stress, too. Rapid speech is highly contagious. It's less effective,
hard to follow, easily misconstrued. No matter how fast the other guy is blathering
on, slow down, speak deliberately...replace speed with firmness and clarity. You'll
stay more calm and communicate more forcefully. Why make yourself crazy? Today's Health Headlines Previous Stress Tip Cancel that last chore of the night. Don't let stress make you an ogre. What stress can do to us isn't pretty. Snapping at others. Becoming impatient, insensitive, quick to criticize and berate. Often hurtful to those we love. Even boiling over into tirades and tantrums. In the name of what? If this is what your quest for the "good life" is doing to you, maybe it's not such a good life after all. Think about the inordinate pressure you're putting on yourself. Day after day. Year after year. It's taking a toll. Compromising your health. Aging you prematurely. Turning you into someone you're not. Life can be carefree and fun now if you let it. Lighten up. Lose the stress. Why make yourself crazy?
