Positive Think Your Way Out Of Work Stress



We have all been there, a tough day turns into a tough week and before you know it you are feeling s certain amount of stress and strain that doesn’t seem to be lifting anymore. You feel like you are carrying it with you wherever you go, and that there is a constant black cloud hanging over your head.

Even times out with friends, walking or doing the things you usually enjoy and are usually grateful for have stopped mattering to you, and in fact do not have any impact on your moods anymore!
Are you worried that you are never going to be happy again? Concerned that you will need to change careers to get out of this mind-set?

Worry not! There is no need for such drastic action, in fact work stress is not the catalyst anymore, although it may have been the trigger for the way that you are feeling right now, it was just that… the trigger.

When something makes us feel bad and we keep dwelling on it instead of fixing it, our thinking gets confused and changes to negative. It is very easy to end up feeling this way by reverting back to old thinking, as we all know, thoughts become things, so you are essentially creating your own depressing reality by allowing yourself to keep on this destructive though path.

Remember “This too shall pass” But not without a little bit of work from you! You need to change your thoughts! Once you have altered your thinking back to positive, you will soon see that life will become lighter and easier again, and you will lose that black cloud you have!

You can use 3 simple steps to start to change your thinking:

Awareness – Becoming aware of your thoughts is key to changing them, try catching your first thought and change it into a positive one

Rational Thinking – Analyse your thoughts and decide whether they are rational or not, if they are not then you need to get rid of them, only keep rational thoughts that serve you at the time in your head. Don’t waste time on pointless thoughts!

Keep it simple – Don’t over think your thoughts, or over analyse the reasons you are having them, this will just confuse you and make life even more difficult.

Just know that you are the keeper if your thoughts, you and you alone have the power to change the way you think, the way you feel and the path your life takes!

So if you have had a particularly stressful week, try and take time to relax this weekend and gently try to change your thinking so that you can start to feel better and look forward to a whole new week next week!

Good luck!
