Thought Stopping
You’ve heard the old saying, ‘All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Modify it and you’ll get, ‘All stress and no relaxation makes Jack a dead guy.’ Yes it’s true that stress can sometimes lead to life-threatening consequences. But the brutal truth is that in today’s competitive world, stress has become unavoidable.
Talking about stress always reminds me of my friend Sona. She has a tendency to get worried and anxious about every little thing. Once that happens, her mind works overtime thinking of every possible disaster that could happen. Her thoughts range from “I have to complete this work today … or else my boss will get mad at me … and if I loose my job it will be awful … I wonder if my marriage would survive tough times. Times are bad … & so on.”
