Deep dives

Understanding the Source of Stress

Stress is often misattributed solely to work-related factors, but it originates from an individual's inability to manage various internal aspects. This includes how one regulates their body, thoughts, emotions, chemistry, and energy levels. By recognizing that stress is a personal management issue rather than an external work-related one, individuals can gain control over their responses. This perspective shifts the focus from blaming external circumstances to addressing internal factors that contribute to stress.
