This week’s QUOTE FOR STRESS
“When we change our perception we gain control. The stress becomes a challenge, not a threat”. Greg Anderson
Stress is the cause of depression. Stress is created from our perceptions, how we view a situation. When my children were younger we regularly went for hikes in the mountains. Being rather unfit, my thoughts often went along the lines of “I hope I make it to the top without having a heart attack! I wasn’t exactly sure where the rescue helicopter would land if I did.” Might sound silly, but then most of us have silly thoughts at times. It was an upward struggle and I certainly didn’t think of the view from the top. However my children and husband would just about sprint to the top, in their eagerness to look at the view from the top!
Different perceptions about the same event. I do have to admit that once at the top, I did feel very proud of myself!
