#Stress

"To achieve great things, two things are needed: a plan and not quite enough time."

"Stress comes from the fear of the unknown; tranquility comes from accepting the unknown with love and joy."

"One thought I think every person eventually thinks is, “Holy shit, I’m going to die!” Sorry, I just turned thirty yesterday, so my mortality is on my mind."

"Tension is who you think you should be. Relaxation is who you are."

"Unreturned love is like trying to make a sandwich with one slice of bread. Don’t stress—fold it in half and love yourself."

"It was after I first began to uplift my thoughts a bit that my cravings for junk food started to dissipate. I did not connect the two at that time. First, I simply noticed that I didn’t need to sleep so much. It took a while before I realized that in addition to my improved energy level, there was a direct correlation between chewing on mental garbage and putting garbage in my mouth."

"We must have a pie. Stress cannot exist in the presence of a pie."

"When I take a break, even just a brief one, the creative energy flows in. Only then do I have anything of value to share with others. Once I recognized this, I stopped feeling guilty about taking time for myself."

"Each moment of worry, anxiety or stress represents lack of faith in miracles, for they never cease."

"Poetry happens when there is nothing to say but you have a volcano hidden inside you waiting to erupt."

"I was a little excited but mostly blorft. "Blorft"is an adjective I just made up that means 'Completely overwhelmed but proceeding as if everything is fine and reacting to the stress with the torpor of a possum.' I have been blorft every day for the past seven years."

"There's a terrible price to pay for stress in your life - it really takes a hit on your heart."

"The size of your sighs tell how deeply you’re in love. How I feel is very much like a stressed and distressed midget trying to breathe."

"You must learn to let go. Release the stress. You were never in control anyway."

"I wish...I wish I were dead...”“And what use would that be to anyone?"

"Stress comes from lower vibrational consciousness; change your awareness to melt away stress."

"There's a hysterical, tired sense of humor that comes after working 14 hours a day, six days a week. I like those things because they take the pressure off the constant stress."

"Being in control of your life and having realistic expectations about your day-to-day challenges are the keys to stress management, which is perhaps the most important ingredient to living a happy, healthy and rewarding life."

"No beating yourself up. That’s not allowed. Be patient with yourself. It took you years to form the bad habits of thought that you no longer want. It will take a littletime to form new and better ones. But I promise you this: Even a slight move in this direction will bring you some peace. The more effort you apply to it, the faster you’ll find your bliss, but you’ll experience rewards immediately."

"Sometimes we can focus so much on nothing that we make it a big something of nothing"
