What is Stress in your life?
Stress is feeling of an event or circumstance which is understood to be a possible danger. It can be any force or pressure put on a system, living or nonliving, which may result in a need for the system to adjust or change. Stress on humans is like a rubber band. You also stretch to meet the surroundings around you, the demands of your current lifestyle, and the pressures you put on yourself. If pulled too far, stress displays itself in real conditions mentally, physically, and emotionally. Like a rubber band split when stretched too far, human beings have a breaking point too. The secret is to learn how to handle stress in your life and dodge and becoming over-stressed.
