We all have a favorite expression we use to describe being stressed out, and it is partly related to the generation we belong to, or even the place that we live.
Whether you call it being stressed out, overloaded, burned out, ready to break, or anything else, the actual meaning is the same.
And when we hear these terms we understand and relate to what the person is expressing – but of course it is easy to project our own life circumstances and emotions as we listen.
The truth is that we can feel totally stressed without having any obviously recognizable reason.
But if we take the time to really analyze our situations and our life in general we are likely to find some culprits lurking.
A typical problem is time management.
Many of us have problems fitting in everything that we want or need to do.
This can result in feelings of exhaustion and fatigue…even if we don’t directly attribute the feelings with not completing the things on our to do list it is likely that there is a connection.
So when it comes to stress issues, one of the first things we need to consider is how we manage our time.
But it is also important that we have realistic expectations. For those among us that try to fit 35 hours of living into 24, there is simply no way to meet those expectations.
Therefore, we will always feel like failures in some way and we will be exhausted.
Making a list of things to do each day is a great way to manage one’s time – but only if the list is based on realistic timeframes.
When making these lists it is vitally important that they are written in a fashion that one will actually be able to check things off and at the end of the day, feel good about finishing required tasks.
That’s why the list should be prioritized and after those tasks are completed the less important ones are tackled.
Any task not completed by the end of the day is moved to the list for the next day.
Our normal routines – what we call our lifestyle, can have a direct impact on our emotional state.
Getting enough rest is imperative to having energy and focus.
Eating right keeps us healthy and mentally alert.
By living a healthy lifestyle we are tending to our body’s needs in a way that allows it to better deal with emotional stressors.
Even our personality can affect how we feel emotionally.
Pessimists are more likely to have difficulty dealing with certain issues in life than optimists.
Working at being a person that thinks positively can help one in many aspects of their life.
Learn to see the glass half full instead of half empty.
Accept every situation as a new and intriguing challenge.
Practice using positive language when you speak.
You will be surprised at the difference these small changes can make in your life.
You will feel more energetic which means your fatigue will be lessened.
All of this will add up to true feelings of relaxation and comfort at the end of the day.
