Great post, as always. I firmly agree with the ‘perception’ rule – what causes stress for one does not for another.

Enjoy the journey.

I was/am following you – don’t know why Twitter decides some and not others appear in drop down DM menu – I DM’d you from “send msg” link on your profile!

You said “It is only stress if I let it stress me out and as I am pretty laid back I don’t let it very often.” – BRILLIANTLY said! Stress is a lot about perception. Decide you are not stressed – and you aren’t! Wish I could do that! I actively have to manage mine!

I tried to D M you on twitter but you are not following me. It is only stress if I let it stress me out and as I am pretty laid back I don’t let it very often.

Go easy on yourself! Unemployed and under pressure to make money online – wow that’s stress! “Try harder” may work – but be kind to yourself. No-one has exactly your circumstances. You will make it at your own pace. You are in competition with no-one but your own expectations. As you say, stress is a killer. Take care!

Stress is a killer – it is what is believed to have caused Michael Jackson’s death last night.

Stress can as you imply be brushed under the carpet by persons not admitting, even to themselves sometimes, that they are suffering from it.

I try to avoid putting myself into stressful situations but being currently unemployed and still working at making money online don’t always succeed.

I will just have to try harder and stop falling forward, as Alex would say, and start getting there.
