Pretty good advise....

I have a hard time putting away the everyday troubles that we all encounter from time to time.I read this today and thought I'd share the thought with everyone. Now if I could just do it.


A lecturer, when explaining stress management to an audience, raised a
glass of water and asked 'How heavy is this glass of water?' Answers
called out ranged from 20g to 500g.



The lecturer replied, 'The absolute weight doesn't matter. It depends on
how long you try to hold it.



'If I hold it for a minute, that's not a problem.

'If I hold it for an hour, I'll have an ache in my right arm..

'If I hold it for a day, you'll have to call an ambulance.

'In each case, it's the same weight, but the longer I hold it, the
heavier it becomes.'



He continued,



'And that's the way it is with stress management. If we carry our
burdens all the time, sooner or later, as the burden becomes
increasingly heavy, we won't be able to carry on.'



'As with the glass of water, you have to put it down for a while and
rest before holding it again. When we're refreshed, we can carry on with
the burden.'



'So, before you return home tonight, put the burden of work down. Don't
carry it home. You can pick it up tomorrow.'



'Whatever burdens you're carrying now, let them down for a moment if you
can.



'So my friend put down anything that may be a burden to you right now.



Don't pick it up again until after you've rested a while.'
