Autumn is around the corner. If you are like me, you probably have mixed feelings this time of year. The heat is really getting to me and I wish for a few rainy days. But on the other hand, I really don’t like getting cold. It is with sadness that I greet the summer. But I look forward to the new season with wisdom and hope.
Proverbs 3:13 “Blessed is the man who finds wisdom, the man who gains understanding”
Loosing your job?
Many companies are struggling financially! Everyone I meet these days experience stress due to possible retrenchments or short time implementation. The uncertainties not only causes stress and feelings of negativity, but also influences family relationships. The loss of a job, falls under the ten most stressful events.
People handle stressful situations differently. Especially the adrenaline junkies may even thrive during stress. To them it may be a challenge. But to the average Joe, life may just become intolerable.
Because of the wide spread damage stress can cause it is important to know your own limitations. Your relationships, your outlook on life, your emotional intelligence and your genetics all play a major role.
Friends and family are important. The more isolated and lonely you are, the more vulnerable to stress you will be.
Taking control of events and feeling confident about your abilities, will help you to face challenges head on.
Never loose your sense of humor. Stay optimistic and believe in a Higher Power. Change is a part of life, but it is laughter that will get you through it
To balance your emotions, is a very important aspect of coping with stressful situations. When that adrenaline is pumping, rationalizing is not very easy. But finding that mental switch, will help you bounce back from adversity.
Knowledge is power. The more you know and prepare yourself for a stressful event, the easier it will be to cope.
Sometimes people miss out on happiness, love and contentment because they’re so caught up with their daily lives. Take control, sign up for a workshop and have fun changing your world!
