How To Stop Stressing
I am a person who used to stress in a big way. At one point a work colleague made a comment that he thought that I walked around with the weight of the world’s problems on my shoulders. Things though had to and were about to change.
I then went about reading lots of books about mind over matter and positive thinking.
Panicking and fretting about any given task does in no way make it any easier. In fact it makes it a whole lot worse. The important thing to remember is that in life all you can do is try your best. When a negative thought or worry enters your head you need to immediately ignore it and to change your thought processes into thinking about something which makes you happy or smile. You have to treat these demons as your worst enemy and fight them away. Treat it like a war and be determined not to let them win the battle of minds.
I had always been a worrier; this is something that commenced in childhood probably due to the fact that I had a stutter. I did attend stuttering treatment however I only managed to overcome my stuttering problem when I was aged twenty-two after watching a seventy minute self-help therapy DVD which I bought from The How To Stop Stuttering Centre in Birmingham, England.
I also learned to become a much more care-free person and I also now appreciate what I have in life rather than worrying about what I do not have.
These things have helped to improve my life in a big way; as an example I am now a successful business man selling composite doors and I also offer a professional DVD authoring service.
I hope the above stress-relief tips help other people as much as they have helped me.
Life Coach Advice
I am a person who at many times in my life have felt down and depressed about various issues that I have had in my life such as the fact that I had a speech impediment, stuttering. I was desperate to find a way to stop stammering/stuttering and was more than happy to work hard to achieve fluency.
From reading life coaching and positive thinking books, I realised I had to become a far stronger person, more care-free and to have more respect for myself. I decided that if I did not want to go somewhere I wouldn’t, whatever anyone said. This new found attitude would not be easy to carry off but I was determined to give it a go.
Then came the first challenge to this new found attitude; it happened at my friend Ian’s house. He is a very successful business man; he sells front doors for a living and can be quite an assertive person, he also works with a group of cost reduction experts. He was trying to organise a night out for the following Saturday. I was not at all interested in going out on that particular night for various reasons. Ian soon asked if I was interested in going out to which I answered in the negative.
That answer was not enough for him and he proceeded to question my reasons for not wanting to go. I felt all of the eyes of the people present descend on me and I felt quite awkward. Normally in this situation I would give some excuse but instead I asked him why I needed to give a reason and why my answer of no was not enough for him. He seemed quite shocked at my strong response and moved on to question and nag someone else.
I am now a much more assertive person myself and I am pleased to report that I have now managed to overcome the stutter thanks mainly due to the expert therapy offered at the How To Stop Stammering Center in Birmingham.
