stress management

to share with you how I deal with stress.

(1) if money can solve a problem it's not a problem.

(2) set priorities. the higher the priority, more time is spent, with reasonable expectation.  the lower the priority, the less time spent, with lower expectation.  otherwise, if everything has the same priority, you won't have enough resources, and stress is unavoidable.

(3) time is King.  timely intervention saves the day.  procrastination lengthens the painful process.  at the end, you spend more resources to salvage the situation.

(4) early planning gives you a better picture, with better contingencies and various buffers.

(5) fight or flight.  I prefer the former but shouldn't rule out the latter.

(6) man proposes, God disposes.  try your best, and leave the rest to God.  many things are beyond your control.

(7) keep a good conscience.  or repent to God.  no need to harbour past sadness.  let the dead past bury its dead.

(8) be creative, and see beauty in God's creation.
