Have you ever felt defeated by problems?
Do you feel as though you are lost in your own world?
You don’t have to be perturbed as there is definitely a way out of every situation!
No doubt, when we are presented with unpleasant situations, we often in a bid to undauntedly conquer failure, pay more attention to the problem and a little less to ourselves. By doing this, we inadvertently disregard the key to solving the problems and may often times create more problems in addition.
Sometimes the key to solving a problem is a little less worry and a little more attention to what really matters.
At the end of the day” we” are all that really matters and just as it is said – “a sound mind makes the best of decisions”; it is advisable to take some time to refurbish ourselves in order to avoid getting burned out.
Self care is a necessity in an individuals overall performance.
What you need to know is this – When problems get to you, stress becomes inevitable and when you allow stress on the other hand get to you, it becomes a disease. Stress have been repeatedly reported to be a major part of some physical health conditions, not to mention the emotional and mental instability that may result.
Trying so hard to live a balanced life, striving to juggle through your responsibilities, duties, obligations and problems all at the same time may not be the best of options. These probably compounds stress.
Here are a couple of ideas to help you stay stable:
• Learn to churn your responsibilities or problems out one at a time – it eases stress.
• There is need to prioritize your responsibilities, let go of some if the need arises – Do not focus on balancing all at the same time.
• Create a quiet time for yourself, when you could just relax (body and mind), meditate and probably reflect on some decisions you have made.
• Learn to discipline yourself to observe some form of unwinding when you feel stressed out – go on weekend getaways, utilize your vacations.
• Discover your magic – what works for you and enables you to relax. It could be taking a long walk, reading a book, doing yoga etc.
• Stay positive always – take sometime to talk to yourself, speak positive affirmations to yourself, remind yourself of how strong you are and how much of an achiever you are!
Bottom line –
Never let problems or responsibilities out weigh your ability to relax! You may end up loosing ” Yourself” along the line.
