How much pressure are you putting on your self?

Is all this pressure helping you or causing you stress?

There was a time in my life that I was ridiculous with how much pressure I was putting on myself to be the ‘best’ at what I was doing. After a number of months I notice how poor my results were. This was a wake up call for me. I realized that if I was putting that much pressure on my self, that pressure was coming out of me in all my actions.

To clarify; the pressure that you put on yourself is different that the passion you have. For example; if you are passionate about what you do, you will still be playful and have fun with others. Whereas if you are putting pressure on yourself to get specific results no matter the cost, the pressure will become very evident to those you are working with.

Can you think of a few ideas that will increase your passion and reduce the undue pressure you are putting on yourself?

Isn’t this going to be a better way to live life?
