Hello,
First off I would like to tell everyone who would like to start their own business, or earn some extra income from home about a great book that I just got done reading. It is called "Multiple Streams of Internet Income" by Robert G. Allen. I personaly have learned many things from this book and I know you can too. As my grandfather told me to do when he recommended
book to me I am going to tell you. Read it, highlight it, take notes on it, then go back to beginning and do it again. You can buy this book at Barnes & Noble for $11.86 by clicking on this link http://service.bfast.com/bfast/click?bfmid=2181&sourceid=40666262&bfpid=047121888X&bfmtype=book
Now I know that all of you are perfect and have no complications or stress in your life, but for maybe those one or two of you that do have a little bit of stress in your life :) here is a good article I found on how to recoginze and deal with stress.
Stressed For Success by Penny Plautz
Stress costs industry over 150 billion dollars a year in US alone. In UK, as much as 60 percent of all absenteeism is believed to be caused by stress-related disorders. In Norway, work-related sickness costs 10 percent of Gross National Product. The Japanese have an officially recognized condition called karoshi - death from stress caused by too much work. We hear it every day - staggering costs of stress.
But what exactly is stress? Where does it come from? And what can we do about it? It's easy to point to increasing urbanization, aging populations, changing gender roles, chaotic cultural climates, amount and speed of information and new technology as culprits. All of these factors have a significant impact on our lives - for better or for worse. However, reducing stress and reversing its effect on our individual lives ultimately is an inside job.
You see, stress is different for each of us. Although you may delight in delivering this year's marketing report to a packed house, I may pass out before I reach podium! What you may interpret as a "light schedule" may be overwhelming to me.
By acknowledging differences in individual styles, rhythms, preferences, and priorities AND refraining from judging them as good/bad or right/wrong we can significantly reduce our own stress level. It all begins with awareness.
