When we think about it, It's pretty amazing what we allow to bother us, What we allow to consume our time, And yet time is supposed to be our most precious resource. Why is it, We waste so much just by worrying? Also, too much stress is bad for your health. I fully believe that's why there are a lot of people die too early!

Your Cleanliness

A while back, I realized something I had never thought about. When My environment is clean, and the setup is simple. I get more done! I worry less; I trip over fewer things. It sounds obvious, doesn't it? Why is it that so many of us don't keep up on that thing? We claim we don't have time, But it takes just 10 minutes at times! If you are behind, Spend 10 minutes every day until you get that perfectly clean environment, Reorganize, Get rid of stuff. You'll be amazed by the difference it makes.

Relationships

If you are always letting people drag you down, Where does that leave you? SOmetimes because of circumstances we can't eliminate all the toxic people in our life, But we should certainly try! You know those people that just make you feel empty and tired, Just by being around them?

Time

We are such busy people these days, But how often is it unnecessary? Sometimes I catch myself mindlessly browsing the internet. Not even paying attention. And then I get stressed out when I haven't' done much work. I realized something crazy last night.
My "Ideal" Day Consists of...

  • Uploading my 40 shirts a day for my shirt business
  • Ideally writing 4 Steemit posts.

I haven't been doing that. I've been convinced that such amount of work is impossible. And as I near the 4,000 tier and 80 uploads a day. I am becoming increasingly concerned that I may have to make some tough decisions. But there was a day where I forced myself to focus on those uploads, And focus on my posts. And I saw something amazing, THe reason it takes me so long to get things done, Is because I get distracted and lose focus. IT'S POSSIBLE to do everything I want in a day! Too many of us are convinced that a day isn't very valuable and can be wasted. But if we have that mindset every day, Eventually we run out of days. You can do a lot in a day, Just don't let yourself get distracted from what is important.

Health

When you don't eat right And exercise. You cause unnecessary stress on your body, Which later makes you feel like crap.
How can you get things done, When you don't feel well?
We all can work on some aspect of our eating, and improve somewhere. Try to give your body the healthy fuels that it needs to power through the day. We can avoid many stomach aches and fatigue just by fixing our diets.

Your Finances

Budgeting can be hard. Sometimes we have so much going on in our lives. We stop paying attention. Many of us have some debt as a result.
Not knowing where your money is going, Is a very scary thing. You should always know where your money is going!
There are sites like Mint. That will help you manage your finances. Or you can do it the old-fashioned way with paper and pencils. Knowing where your money is going will relive a lot of unnecessary stress in your life.

Conclusion

Daily stresses. Are well, Stressful! And much of it can be avoided. And should be avoided. We have enough happening in our lives each day, Which we don't need to add to it.

I have Steemit shirts for sale too :) That I made!

Yes! I saw, great stuff. I think you were talking to my business partner @adept

No I was talking about mine, The ones in my post. I do like @adept 's design though.

Amazing post, direct and without any fluff!

My "Ideal" Day Consists of...

Uploading my 40 shirts a day for my shirt business

Wow! That would be a "dream day" for most people! Good to see you aim for it. I presume that you could be uploading t-shirts to Merch. Just a word of advice there - think of diversifying to other platforms as well, even with the same shirts since using only one platform may be a bit risky in the long run. In any case always better to spread out income.

Try to give your body the healthy fuels that it needs to power through the day.

I like that you put the image of an elephant beneath this point - very appropriate!

There are sites like Mint. That will help you manage your finances. Or you can do it the old-fashioned way with paper and pencils.

Good point! Until some years ago, I used to note down all my expenses in a lined notebook and I was able to cut down a third of my expenses - all unnecessary expenses. I now use an app :-).

As usual a very good post - always look forward to your articles.

If you have time, please check out my Missing Steemit FAQ which is my latest post.

That 40 designs a day is still crazy to me. That is alot of designs over the course of just a week! You go girl.

I'll tell ya what, the exercise one is big for me. I feel so tired an sluggish when I'm not exercising. Ironically, I'm headed to the gym now for some well needed exercise after two weeks of slacking!

Yeah Definitely not easy! I have 2 designers that give me like 20 a week. But I spend most of my day making them at the moment.
Woohoo! I'm glad you are going to the gym :) I feel the same way! Exercise is so good for you!

yup out with the toxic relationship and in come fresh air! Great post :)

Heheh Yes!! :)

Yes, all true. I agree with every one of your observations in this post. Particularly, I would say that many people underestimate the power of budgeting and maintaining responsible finances. Getting one's financial condition in order can have a positive and cascading effect on many other aspects of one's life. Keep up the good work.

Daily stresses... no matter what they are, they always seem to create the illusion that they eat up our time. More than anything, I find that being well organized-- and not backsliding into chaos-- helps the most.

Exactly! I didn't think of that when writing the article! But thats a great one hehe :)

I believe wasting time is the most significant one, I enjoy reading your post.

Thank You ! I agree that one really hurts.

I agree, time's the big one.

Great analysis! Managing stress is important!

Meditation :)

For me it the finances that bother me the most, once I start to worry its hard to stop and worrying affects your health. So two problems in one. - thoughtful post I thinks its one of your better ones

The 'time' stresser I think, more than anything does it for me. Sometimes I have to just relax and be okay with 'not' getting everything done.

I think so

I'm one of those heavy thinkers that suffer from analysis paralysis. This means that by the time I've devoted the resources to tackle the problem issue, I've already decided why bother! Ironically, this only happens at home and never at work. I have almost OCD traits at work, a meticulous office, and very efficient and effective habits. At home though, a damn PIGSTY!

Yes, I have three dogs at home that are absolute dirt magnets. I'm exhausted when I get home from work. Excuses abound and it's easier to just ignore the mess in the rest of the house.

It's amazing how we can put up with our own filthy habits. Yet, go some where else and we are quick to judge others with the same disgusting environment. Thanks again!

It's so true ! Omg I related so much with all of this.. it's so funny how it really shouldn't take more then 10 minutes to organize and yet that seems like a lifetime and I never do shit haha. My laziness needs to change asap !

I totally agree with the text, sometimes we worry too much about things without interest and this only bothers much more.
Great post!

Wow...4 steemit posts a day seems like a pretty big commitment dont you think? Anyway yeah toxic people shld be eliminated. Too much negativity without proper contribution is bad.

very good That is a beautiful meditation! I love the suggestion to record the affirmations because I was wondering. How I could remember to say all of that.

Wasting time on both job opportunities that will go nowhere that leave you with less money sometimes, and also the relationships that always seem to go well until a little later on and they suddenly change and show their true colours.

That's the worst and have experienced it all too much! Least things have picked up a lot more this year and I am glad both of us are able to really start experiencing life and a happy one too! hehe 😃

Great post, dont be to serious in your life and you are good to go ;)

The only one that gives me a little stress is time but then I remember stress lessons our time here on and quickly forget about it lol. Stress does nothing good for they body nor is it productive so cancel it out of your life all together.

True! Oh did you get your Merch by Amazon account back? I saw in a previous post you were banned?

excellent post I will refer to this often.

True. I spend ages on Steemit trying to read all the post I want to and waste time. I am trying ti limit my time online for sure. Difficult task, I have decluttered sorted my money and relationship. I am on the right path I just have to manage my time now :)

Great post as always @kaylinart.

que bueno.

Or... what others think about us. That's major stress right there.

My best way to destress is to pray it carries power far beyond what we can explain.
Great artivle God bless
