They'd say STRESS is BAD but not for a workaholic like me. I adore STRESS more than ever. It makes me think, makes me alive, hyperactive 24/7, like the movie limitless. It's a form of a drug that activates my brain to work efficiently. Quite ironic but I get sick without it. I may not be feeling its long term effects yet because I'm still enjoying my youth. When my hair would turn gray, that's probably the time when I'll get my fair share of stress-related health risks. But that's if I reach that stage. It's too morbid to think that our generation would die young. Gone are the baby boomers. Don't expect too much of your life span because you might get disappointed. With the birth of instant things...food, technology, work or even relationships. I don't think we'll even be closer to 60 or 70. So what am I trying to advocate here? Be a stressful person like me? Of course not! It still depends on the capacity of the individual to handle stress. So what I'm trying to say is.. handle your STRESS well before it strikes you. Before you lose sanity...your grip of reality. Try to assess yourself if you've suffered too much stress in life. If so, are you still in your sound mind to act and follow the goals you've made for yourself? Are you still able to do your duties without compromising other important things? If not, then YOU should be ALARMED!
