How to Alleviate Stress at Work

The recent economic issues wreak perils on employees and families. Stress levels are high. Many people worry about retirement accounts, mortgage payments and employment status. Add to this the upcoming holiday season and stress is rising. However, there are things you can do to calm stress:

1.    Ignore the small stuff. There is only so much that you can control and you cannot control everything. Only worry about things that matter. Automobile issues are for mechanics; the rising price of produce will not stop because you complain; and rude people will always exist, so ignore the pressure to respond. Let the little things – and they are little things – roll off your back like rainwater off a rose.

2.    Learn self-mastery. Frustration arouses us because we have not mastered a sense of self. It is imperative to look in the mirror and recognize our accomplishments. We must rationalize our success. Stress stems from a focus away from self onto others. Learn to become a master of the mirror and see what lurks within.

3.    Stop limiting your beliefs. “Insanity is doing the same thing repeatedly and getting the same result.” To seek new methods you must change your limiting beliefs. For example: if you believe you are poor, you are; if you believe you make less then others, you do; and if you believe you are treated unfairly at work, you are. Limit beliefs focused on the negative. Stop the insanity, look in the mirror, gain acuity in thought and realize all you have to offer. Begin focusing on positive issues and positive results will happen. What do you think Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King Jr., John F. Kennedy and Frank Lloyd Wright said to limiting beliefs? All you can become already exists!

Stress is the audacious component of heart and liver disease, diabetes, obesity, etc. Extend your life, your passions and your relationships by learning to downplay stress and expand your capabilities.
