Are you feeling stressed in your daily life?
I in the past
・ I hate long hours of work
・ I don’t like getting up early in the morning
・ I don’t like being tied up in time
・ I hate to ask the complexion of various people
I didn’t like this kind of thing and felt stressed.
Therefore,
I think about what I should do to get rid of my stress, and I try to live a stress-free life with the 10 actions I will introduce this time.
Currently, people who are stressed
I would like you to refer to it.
10 things I did to get rid of stress in my life
do not do it perfectly
Trying to act perfectly can sometimes be very stressful.
You may want to see the maximum performance in your work or hobbies, but sometimes you have to meet the expectations of yourself and others, and you have to do more than you have. Will be.
In such a situation, the pressure will increase and the stress will increase at the same time.
Clarify what you can and cannot do, and when you face something you can’t do, try not to take on the job or ask someone to do things without feeling pressure. You can do things.
put my time first
If you don’t have your own time, your body and mind will be exhausted and you will reach the limit somewhere.
When I was working at a company, the rule that “everyone has to go to work, so I have to go to work” was the norm.
However, when I sacrificed my time to adapt to others, I felt stressed by the gap between what I wanted to do and what I had to do, and there was a time when it was mentally difficult.
When I felt the limits, I decided to change my workplace and relationships so that I could secure my own time.
delighted with my small success
People have the property of being difficult to react to small changes.
I felt this way about three months after I started blogging. I updated my blog post every day, but the number of PVs didn’t increase, and I was depressed saying “I’m a bad person no matter what I do …”.
However, I wrote about 100 articles in 3 months, and compared to the beginning when there was no access, several PVs came out.
What I noticed there is that even a small change can be a big change if it is accumulated every day. That’s why it’s so important to be happy with a little change.
get sleep
Lack of sleep makes it easier to feel negative.
When I was 24 to 26 years old, I was doing music activities while working late at night. Of course, I didn’t have time to sleep, so it was natural that I wouldn’t sleep for a couple of days.
I was frustrated when people said critical words, and I felt like I was being sweared that people were having a conversation.
After I changed my job to a blogger at the age of 27 and became able to secure enough sleep time, I no longer feel negative from people’s words.
make my rule
Having your own rules is probably the best way to get rid of stress.
Many of the stresses come from external factors. In other words, I can’t help myself. However, you can also escape from stressful external factors by setting your own rules.
In my case
・ Do not take a crowded train
・ Do not get up early to get to work
・ Do not make unimportant promises
I changed my relationships and work in order to live according to the rules.
don’t want to be hated
People don’t want to be disliked and tend to adapt to their hobbies and ways of thinking.
Especially in Japan, people tend to dislike this way of thinking, saying, “That person doesn’t agree with me.”
But, each person’s way of thinking is different, and it is impossible to match everyone.
If we want to agree with everyone, we have to change the way we behave.
If everyone behaves differently, their personality will be suspected.
So you don’t have to be liked by everyone, you only have to deal with people who match your values.
greed for someone
Nowadays, it’s easy for someone to evaluate your information on SNS. It seems that more and more people are buying brand-name products or going to high-end stores to get evaluations from others.
I think this kind of behavior is meaningless. The reason is that the evaluation does not change anything in the end.
Moreover, you will become poorer and poorer by repeating expenses that do not match your income.
By abandoning the idea of wanting to be evaluated by others, you can avoid wasting money.
do not postpone what to do
Let’s finish the troublesome things immediately.
In everyday life, there are many things to do, such as transferring money to a bank or having to shop.
If you put off what you have to do, you may have to deal with it when you don’t have the time.
cut unnecessary relationships
Unnecessary relationships waste time in your life.
To deepen your relationships, you will need to contact and go out to eat. And the more relationships you have, the more time you spend on people.
You should spend a lot of time on relationships with irreplaceable people, such as best friends and parents.
have your own beliefs
Finally, let’s have our own beliefs.
My belief is “to live freely”. Thanks to this decision, when you have a choice, you can decide according to your beliefs.
Decide on your beliefs so that you can live comfortably and not make mistakes in your choices.
