Here are some thoughts on coping with stress.

 

Notes

 
When things seem to be falling down around you, it's easy to lose perspective.  Here are five things to keep in mind that may help to reframe the stressful situation:

Is this really a problem?  Sometimes a problem is really an opportunity for you to improve.  If it is a problem you will probably do as well as most people in solving it.  If you succeed, you will benefit.  If you fail, in some way you will benefit too.

Have others dealt with this problem?  Talk to your friends and others you respect.  Find out how this problem has been successfully handled before.  You may even discover an innovative solution that you can share with others.

Can this problem be divided into more manageable parts?  Most overwhelming problems can be broken down and taken on in smaller pieces.

What are my priorities?  Think about everything you have to do.  Make a list and rank by importance.  Where does this problem really fit into your day, week, life.

What is the worst that can happen?   What consequences do you face if this problem isn't resolved today, tomorrow, next week, this month, this year, ten years from now?
