Every one has stress its how you manage it is what's important. 

Right now, I need to remember to only focus on the things that I can control.

Managing my level of stress has definitely been the focus the last few years and most importantly within the last year. With a lot of external stress that is out of my control, I've had to come to the realization that it is in fact something that I cannot manipulate the outcome of. By acknowledging this, it has helped tremendously. Another way I've helped cope with the stress is to take about 2 minutes during the day or whenever I am feeling overwhelmed and drop everything and just sit in silence or write down anything that I need to accomplish… >>>

Negative stress can really be tough and even detrimental to one's health if not dealt with properly.  First understanding that you are stress and then being honest about what it is that's actually stressing you can allow you to get proper help for yout stress. Yes I understand there are some positive stress that helps us complete goals or projects, but do understand that the stress even if you believe it's positive can become negative if not handled effective. 

Stress is good for everyone but how you manage it is up to you.  Boiling water can harden an egg, but soften a potato.

I am stressed at times but I can recognize it.

Over the last year I have really worked to identify ways that I can reduce negative stress because I have realized I am the best version of myself as an educatory, wife, and mother when I do things to reduce unnecessary stress in my life. I also know that stress can be a positive thing in my life that pushes me to reach my goals.
