BLOG POST 7: Stressed? Try this!
Have you ever felt really stressed up and felt the ache hold up in every cell of your body? Your head feeling like a balloon waiting to burst. When all you could think of was, how distressing life is. When your muscles felt tight and you were so vexed up that you could possibly spurt out your frustration on any unlucky chap that would have passed by? And to top it all the realization that nothing helps making you feel terrible?
I felt this today. Stuff like being late to college, missing out on stuff, not being replied to, and so many more silly reasons tensing me up.
I tried deep breathing. But each breath was fire.
I knew I had to think and I decided to.
I placed a chair next to the window facing our veranda and thought. I was still angry with everyone.
But a little later, things started to change inside me. My perspectives started to realign. I instituted myself, in the place of the one's I had feelings of annoyance about, and considered if I would have been any different in their place.
I wrote this in my journal today
To be grateful is today's motto
See the Good side of Everything
A Grateful ❤️ Heart can open the door to Miracles
Whenever you are stressed out and feel like no one's there for you. When you feel you've been doing alot for people and you feel worn out and tired. THINK AGAIN!
Have you been doing a lot for people? How different would YOU have been if you were in the other person's place?
Be Grateful that they had the courtesy to do what they did.
Thank Everyone from the bottom of your heart for doing what they did.
A humongous weight was lifted off me after this simple thought traversed my mind. I go through this almost everyday and I know we are all the same.
Like Dale Carnegie said "After all, when dealing with human beings, we are not dealing with creatures of logic. Rather, we are dealing with creatures of emotions motivated by pride and jealousy."
So maybe you could keep this in mind next time and see everyone just like yourself.
Hope this helped!
