Stress Tip..by
G. Gaynor McTigue..TUE.9/20/05 Every moment is an opportunity. Do
you find yourself forever waiting for opportunities to happen? And thus are stuck
in a frustrating holding pattern until they do? It might surprise you that every
moment of your life is an opportunity. Everything you think, everything you say
and do, is the result of a decision you make. And you have the opportunity to
make each of those decisions different, exciting, better. The reason life becomes
so monotonous and predictable is that we're constantly making the same decisions.
We don't fully explore our options. Start changing that. See how differently you
can meet each moment. The affect can be startling, empowering, liberating. And
the more you take advantage of these opportunities, the more they will make themselves
apparent to you. Why make yourself crazy?
Previous Stress Tip Build in the expectation of malfunctions. When we buy things -- homes, cars, appliances, computers -- in our enthrallment with their newness and pride of acquisition, we never imagine them breaking down, needing repair, or eventually being replaced. So when it actually happens, it comes as a shock to us, a stroke of bad luck we didn't deserve. Causing much anxiety and stress. Look, these aren't anomalies, they're normal occurrences. Each year, expect that some items will break and need fixing or replacement. You just don't know what they'll be. Also, set aside a certain dollar amount, at least in your mind, you can expect to pay. Then, when something goes kaput, you won't feel victimized. And will treat it like the routine event it is. Why make yourself crazy?
