Those who live in cities around the world are likely going to have similar experiences about living and the associated challenges regardless of their location on the globe. Most of these challenges revolve around stress which studies have shown is a part of living. Regardless of what you do and your profession and place stress is not avoidable but could be minimized. Those who see stress as an enemy will probably live an irritable life which is quite unnecessary.
不管你生活在世界上哪一个城市,你都很可能会遇到类似的生活经历和各种各样的挑战．研究证明，大部分这些来自各种压力的挑战已经成为人们生活的一部分，无论你干什么，从事何种职业，身处何方，你都无法避免各种压力，但你却能最大限度的减少压力．因此人们大可不必将压力视为敌人从而使生活烦躁不安．
How then do we cope with stress? I am going to give you tips that have helped and are still helping me in coping with life in the city of Lagos Nigeria, the most populous African city, where orientation of people is quite different in many ways about stress and living with others.
那么我们应该如何应对压力呢？让我来告诉你一些小窍门，正是这些小窍门让我在尼日利亚的拉哥斯那样一个人口稠密，人们目标迥异的城市得以应付生活中的各种压力，处理各种人际关系．
1. Wrong views on stress
1 正确地认识压力
Get the right meanings and impression on stress. Those who misconstrued some daily activities or physical exercises as stress will likely be over burdened by what stress is not. You could read up some literatures, journals, or visit some websites and publications like this website to get to know more on stress. I believe when you can relate your activities and place them in right perspectives on what stress is then you could avoid being overwhelmed by some wrong thoughts about it.
我们对压力要有正确的认识,那些错误的把根本算不上压力的日常活动和身体锻炼看做是压力的人就会觉得负担过重,你可以通过读一些文学作品,杂志或者访问一些网页或类似的刊物来更多的了解压力.我相信如果你能正确的认识你所从事的活动,并且能够以正确的眼光来看待什么是压力,你就不会被那些实际并不存在的所谓压力所折服.
2. Do not make stress an issue
2 不要过分担心压力
Those who will readily be devastated by stress are those who see it as an issue. It is better to ride on the wave of stress rather than be consumed and overtaken by it. So do not see stress as a problem but as a challenge of living that can be handled and live with, with few consequences.
被压力所催垮的往往是那些过分担心压力的人.我们应该把压力看作是可以应对的生活中的一些无法避免的挑战,它们并不会带来多么严重的后果,因为积极面对压力总比被它压倒好.
3. Schedule your activities right
3 合理安排好你的活动
It may sounds strange to be advised on scheduling your activities which you have been doing for many years. If you have been bothered by stress then I think it is advisable to reappraise your activities in the light of this understanding in order to identify some probable flaws that may hitherto be hidden. It could be revealing. Do not therefore live on assumption but know that the way you schedule your activities can out blow the impact of stress on you. For instance schedule only the number of activities you could take per day. Do not over estimate your abilities but take only the number of activities you think you could successfully carry out in a day. An uncompleted task could leave you spent.
有人建议你合理安排好你的活动,听起来也许觉得很奇怪,因为几年来你一直都在安排.我觉得如果你一直被压力所困扰的话,从这个角度出发重新安排你的活动是一种明智的做法.这样一来可以发现一些迄今为止仍然隐藏在你计划中不足.因此不要生活在假想中,你必须明确,你的安排可能会消除你的压力.比如说,拟定好你一天能完成的事情的数量,不要高估你的能力,只要列出你能在一天能成功完成的即可.因为没完成的任务会让你觉得筋疲力尽. 1/2 1 2 下一页 尾页
