September Stress – Where did that summertime bliss go?
Posted on September 24, 2009 12:00:00am, by Gerrianne Clare
The other day I met with a client who was back to work after a great summer of little routine and lots of fun. He commented on how challenging it was to get back into the mindset of work and get things done. He had many things on his list, but felt like he was walking in quick sand trying to accomplish them.
If you are feeling this way – you are not alone.
After a summer of fun, relaxation and rejuvenation, many people find that 3 weeks into September they are wondering what they are doing and why they are doing what they are doing because they have lot all of that summertime bliss. Many people miss how great they felt and figure they will not feel that way again until their next holiday.
What if you could find ways to relax, have fun and feel rejuvenated in your day to day life?What do you feel gets in the way of this happening?Is it your mindset, your attitude, your “lack of discipline”? Many people try to bully themselves into getting things done by speaking negatively to themselves “Come on, get going, what is wrong with you, you need more discipline, you need to try harder”.Does any of this sound familiar?
Do you feel stress in your life is simply your reality and there is nothing you can do about it? The truth is, there is a lot you can do to manage the stress in your life but it starts with being aware of what is going on with you.
What I would welcome you to do is to start your journey of self discovery by asking yourself the following questions?
Why do I get stressed?
What do I want?
When was the last time that I spent any quiet time with myself learning about me?
Do I feel connected with who I am and what I want?
