Success with Stress

~ I received no compensation and opinions are 100% my own or my family. ~


Synopsis:  Believe it or not, stress isn't all bad; in fact, it's an important part of the natural world. Stress helps us survive as a species - because of that we want the ability to be stressed. That said, being able to manage stress with greater success is the difference between surviving and THRIVING. Success with Stress explores five simple ideas to spark your personal power to change the level, duration, and frequency of the stress in your life. With workplace stress being linked to quality of life, health, and workplace morale, this is a must-read for any team looking to improve morale and individuals looking to improve their quality of life.



One (or more) Sentence Summary:  Who doesn't have stress?  Do any of us know what life is without stress?  Probably not, but we can manage the stress.  As indicated in Success with Stress, we need to learn how to cope with and navigate the stress.  The first chapter had me hooked right away - it is about how communication (or lack of it) can cause stress.  We have all been there, right?  Stress can also cause serious health issues. Jae goes through five strategies how you can success with stress.  It all starts with you or as Jae puts it, "the choice is yours."
