This morning, I put on my blue jean once again. It’s just another day for two partners in crime.
My jean looks worn out, its fading away. Wrinkles on its face is the experience that shows.
The mud and the coffee stains barely visible, these are the scars from those tough times past.

The sad part about stress is that you cannot eliminate it, but you can control how you respond to it. Rather than spending wasteful hours trying to eliminate every problem in life, think about your priorities and place them ahead of your problems. Live each day one hour at a time according to your priority schedule, but still anticipate interruptions.

Understanding the problems related to stress is pretty straightforward, but how do you find a simple solution for reducing stress in your life? Go to the self-help section of the bookstore and you will find a plethora of how-to-reduce-stress-in-your-life books. While most of these books present good tips based on quality research, you often end up adding more stress to your day just finding time to sit down and read the book! Unfortunately there are very few things in life under your complete control, mainly the actions of people and events that happen to you. You can however, control to an extent some of the people and events you allow to affect daily life.

I have this habit. In a debate, an argument or even a casual discussion, when I am in contradiction with someone, my immediate response starts with a ‘No’. I do that because I am being defensive. The topic being discussed contradicts my beliefs or the facts I hold as true. This habit has to change. [...]

I dont have time to love or be loved. I think twice before helping a friend in need. I care less for the simple things in life. I procastinate. I dont priortize. My life is nothing but items on a to-do list.

I have had a lucky life. My parents funded my education. They catered to all my needs. It wasnt until I graduated that I had to even think of getting a job. Luck played its part again when I got my first job.
