Managing stress and time

Managing stress and time

Controlling stress and time is a worthwhile accomplishment that all must control in order to reach victory. Each day we awake, we begin by emphasizing our need to meet deadlines, demands grab our attention, and we stress over finding the balance to spend with our family, selves and friends. 

To some of us achieving, the correct balance seems practically impossible since there are only 24-hours in a single day and at least of eight of those hours are consumed with sleep. The challenge of managing stress and time creates many obstacles, and for some of the times, we find it hard to maintain the balance we need. 

Stress is a direct result of not handling your passions in accordance to with the many stressors that overwhelm you. The key is finding a solution to get in touch with your emotions. When your emotions are prone to sudden outburst, you often suffer tremendously. Control of our emotions affects how we hear people talk, and how we talk to people. 

This lack of emotional control is called irrational behaviour since your mind is not being used fully. Our emotions are a strong force and we need to take control of them to get on with our lives. If we have too many negative emotions, it affects our ability to manage time since negative emotions put fear and doubt into our heads.

You are responsible for all of your decisions and behaviours, and that stress can be the product of irrational thinking. By learning how to think rationally as well as holding a positive outlook on life, it is possible to control stress and manage your time. 

To learn to think rationally and be positive, we must practice. How do you practice? One way is to take a few minutes per day to tell have some positive self-talk. Tell yourself that you are responsible and that you have full control of your mind and the decisions you make. Tell yourself that you have control of your behaviour and no one else can control you.  Over time you will soon realize that you are making wiser decisions. You are learning that you can trust self and accept that we all make mistakes.

We all make mistakes they are common, but the key to success is learning from your mistakes. If you are stressed as a consequence of too much happening in your workplace, your home, and your world, then you may need to find time and space for yourself. This means that your time management will need thoughtful planning so you can build in the time for yourself. In that time you can work on how to manage the stress in your life. 

Under stress, many put off dealing with their responsibilities. When this is done, it actually creates more problems. When you create your plan for dealing with all of the stressors in your life it is important that you start to take action as soon as possible. The action you take is the process of making something work. When you are working toward goals, things may not run smoothly because your plan is in place but you will be in a position to deal with any problems as they come up.

Take time out each day to think positive. Negative self-talk is harmful and you should make sure you eliminate it from use. Remember, risks are fine and taking risks is a part of life. and by controlling your emotions, you can reduce your stress and by controlling your time you can reduce your stress and move toward meeting your goals.
