I have heard many people complaining about the stressful life they live. Some talk about work stress, others say there is academic stress, a few others spend sleepless nights due to family stress. In every case, there is a reason that triggers the stress. This made me wonder if there really is a reason that triggers the stress, then every student should be stressed, every employee should be stressed, every working woman, every homemaker should be stressed. But things don't work that way. There are many people who lead a happy and stress-free life. How is it possible? This is possible because stress is actually self created. Nothing, but we, ourselves are the reason that triggers stress.
How is stress created within us?
Go through the below mentioned points to know how you, yourself create unwanted stress in life.
● Overthinking: We have the habit of overthinking in almost every situation. For example, if your partner comes late one day, you overthink the scenarios that might have caused his late arrival. You create unnecessary stress by thinking that he might have gone out with someone else or he might have started seeing someone else which may not be true but you overthink and get stressed.
● Being stuck upon the tragic events: Everyone goes through ups and downs in life. Everyone gets hurt, everyone undergoes pain and loneliness. But those who keep on thinking about the sad events that have occured in their life in the past and fail to see the beauty in the present often create stress on their own.
● Procrastination: You never realise the time you waste delaying the things which need to be done. Once the time is lost, you can only stress about not having enough time to get things done on time.
These are a few little things that we do knowingly or unknowingly to add stress in life. The truth is, we are not always aware of the fact that our actions or thoughts are the real reasons for our stress. We blame our life for not being fair to us, we blame our work, our luck and everything that puts us in an uncomfortable situation. Our comfort is our choice. Only we, ourselves can find satisfaction in our life. All we need to know is that in order to find someone else's definition of satisfaction, we create stress in our own life. Stress can lead to serious consequences in one's life. Consulting a nearby counsellor to get some clarity of mind can always be a wise decision.
