| What we are
talking about here... |
You are a more highly complex piece
of biological machinery than anything on this plane man
has invented. More complex than the rocket that put the
first people on the moon. More complex than the best computer
system ever invented. More complex than the whole of the
internet multiplied many times over.
And you still have the ability to keep it running or
let it break down! |
| Why it is important... |
| I think we all know the answer to
that one! |
| What you need to know... |
"You are what you eat" so
the saying goes.
What about "You are what you drink, see read, focus your mental effort on
(pornography, obsession with work, partners, hobbies, vices, etc.)"
"
where attention goes, energy flows" so... put your attention in
the wrong places, put energy into it and you will end up in trouble one way
or another. Focus on your next drug experience - and you will have your whole
body negatively affected in the longer term. On the other hand, focus on staying
fit and you will be fit.
It's common sense folks, you can work out the simple truths for yourself.
Stress, on the other hand is different. Stress is about the way you feel
as you respond to external and internal pressure being put on yourself. You can
stress yourself out as well as external factors can. So how do you need to deal
with it? First of all let's be aware of the stress curve:
No stress = no drive = no result. Too much stress and you can't function. |
| Next Steps... |
Things have got to change! So let's start
by asking yourself these 3 simple questions:
- What stresses me out?
- What does it do to me - how does it make me feel?
- What do I need to change myself and/or my situation
to reduce my feelings of stress?
- Who do I need to talk to about this?
