Are you under a lot of pressure?

Is this pressure becoming more stressful for you?

Pressure and stress are usually associated, aren’t they? In order for us to put this into a clearer perspective consider that pressure comes from outside forces. These forces can be people or situations.

People react differently to pressure depending on their inner constitution. Let me give you an example; I thrive on pressure and I have a brother who doesn’t. This does not make him less than I am, it only proves that he is suited better for different types of work that I am.

Stress on the other hand is internally generated. If we let our stress levels increase too quickly and by too much we can be in trouble. If we can control our stress levels, the outside pressure combined with our controlled internal stress can help us achieve more that what was possible without the pressure and stress.

What can you do today that will help adjust your internal stress level?
