Stress Management

A lecturer was giving a lecture to his student on
stress management.

He raised a glass of water and asked the
audience,
"How heavy do you think this glass of water is?"

The students answers ranged from 20g to 500gm.

"It does not matter on the absolute weight.
It depends on how long you hold it.
If I hold it for a minute. It is Ok.
If I hold it for an hour, I will have an ache in my right arm.
If I hold it for a day, you will have to call an ambulance.
It is the exact same weight but the longer I hold it,the heavier it becomes "

"If we carry our burdens all the time, sooner or later,
we will not be able to carry on as the burden becoming increasingly heavier.

What you have to do is to put the glass down,
rest for a while before holding it up again."

We have to put down the burden periodically,
so that we can be refreshed and are able to carry
on.

So before you return home from work tonite, put the burden of work down.

Don't carry it back home. You can pick it up
tomorrow.

Whatever burdens you are having now on your
shoulders,
let it down for a moment if you can.
Pick it up again later when you have rested.
Learn to Rest and relax. Life is short... .
