Your looks are suffering from not using time management properly to manage stress. Those dark circles under your eyes from lack of sleep? That recent weight gain from fast-food dinners and not working out? Shortness of breath from panic attacks? This is caused not only by the stress, but by not having the time to actually address and get rid of the stress. And it’s not just workplace anxiety that needs to have time managed. Every area of your life demands your time. Every area of your life has stress. Every area of your life suffers if the stress overwhelms the time you have.

Using aggressive time management can relieve help these problems. Managing your time in the face of stress helps you stay on your diet or your fitness routine. This goes a long way towards managing the physical symptoms of anxiety attacks. Having a stress management system that uses time management to force time to be healthy will actually make fighting stress all the easier.

Here are 5 ways to use time to stay focused on health in the face of stress:

1. Make time for fitness and diet priorities over distractions. By utilizing aggressive scheduling, you can say “no” to time wasting distractions, and schedule them to be addressed at the proper time.

2. Be accurate in your scheduling. Don’t put aside 20 minutes for the 20 minute workout, if it takes 30 minutes to get to the gym and 30 minutes to change.

3. Delegate non-priority tasks. If the task can be done by someone else, assign it to them. Just don’t give the perception that they are doing it so you can go workout! Do it tactfully.

4. Set aside time for planning. Too much stress is caused by reacting to situations. By setting aside time to analyze and plan, you save time in the long run.

5. Rearrange your workout schedule. Maybe move it from early morning to after work. Or from daily to 4 times per week.

If you don’t do set aside time for your health, the answer to “how does stress affect health” will be “worse and faster.” The signs symptoms of panic attacks can cause many health problems. If the stress is allowed to take up your working out time, the stress will affect your health much worse. Which will reduce your ability to fight stress. Which will make the stress worse. And so on. And so on. It may be difficult to get your time under control. It’s a lot harder trying to get your time under control in a stressful situation and feeling lousy about it.

Time management is an integral part of what to do to relieve stress. Too often, it is presented as the solution to stress management. Granted, it is a large part of the solution. But this is not enough. That’s like saying sticking to your diet will eliminate anxiety attacks. It will make them easier. But it won’t make them go away. And it won’t let you find the opportunities that lie in every stressful situation. Using a comprehensive stress management system which includes time management throughout will eliminate the bad effects of stress on your physical appearance and actually make you better looking! Picture your life when stress is not a concern and where you are the leader in stressful situations. To see exactly how you can do this, go to What to do to relieve stress. STRESS JUDO was developed by Rick Carter, a trial lawyer and martial artist. The courtroom has emotional and intellectual stress, and the dojo and fight ring has physical and psychological stress. It was to handle these stresses that STRESS JUDO was developed, to give you a fighting chance against stress, to turn stressful situations into opportunities.

5 Steps To Manage Stress And Anxiety Attacks By Self Examination

Posted by stressjudo on April 23, 2009

The physical symptoms of anxiety attacks can be devastating.  The shortness of breath. The feeling of terror and panic.  The high blood pressure, chest pains, and headaches.  And nothing you are doing is preventing these attacks.  You react to stress with panic and anxiety.  This is not good, is it? 

Having a strict self examination or self assessment tool to see how effectively you are dealing with stress can be the best way to manage stress and prevent panic attacks.  By using self examination to alleviate or prevent the panic, you will in fact be better looking!  Those dark circles under your eyes from lack of sleep will disappear.  That weight gain from not attending to your diet will melt away.  Your smile will return.

Here are 5 ways to use self examination to manage stress and eliminate panic and anxiety attack symptoms:

  1. Know your emotional and intellectual strengths.  Know the internal resources you have to draw on, to attack stress.  Use frequent self-examination to see what strengths are most effective in different situations.
  2. Know your emotional and intellectual weaknesses.  Know what internal resources will let you down, and therefore what ones you should avoid calling on.  Set your ego aside and realistically see what areas you are weak in and need to improve, especially under stress.
  3. Know what other people are judging you on.  Seriously.  You are being judged all the time, especially at work.  This can add to your feeling of workplace anxiety, over and above the normal deadline and overwork stresses.
  4. Be aware of your specific personal goals.  In any stressful situation, you have to deal with the goals set by many people around you.  Knowing your goals will eliminate that internal stress that occurs when you finish a project and feel unsatisfied because you reached someone else’s goals.
  5. Know the tasks you should be delegating to others.  Taking on the wrong work is probably more stressing than taking on too much work.  By self-examination, you will know what tasks you need to delegate and therefore not put stress on yourself.

 

If you don’t do self-examination concerning how you handle stress on a regular basis, you will continue to suffer anxiety attacks.  And they will continue and they will get worse.  This is because you have no knowledge of how to react to stressful situation, because you have no idea of how you react to stress.  Your looks will just spiral downhill, as you eat stress foods, stop working out, and lose sleep.  You think it will be painful to set up a plan of self examination.  It will be much more painful not to.

 

Self-examination is an integral part of a comprehensive stress management system.  Probably looking for the signs symptoms of panic attacks is part of what you are doing to relieve stress.  But this is not enough.  That’s like a football coach charting out the opposing teams; defense, but not figuring out how to defeat it.  Using a comprehensive stress management system which includes self-examination throughout, will eliminate those side effects that harm your looks and make you better looking.
