WAYS  TO REDUCE  STRESS
Never borrow from the future. If you worry about what may  happen tomorrow and it doesn't happen, you have worried in vain Even if it does  happen, you have to worry twice.
1. Pray
2. Go to bed on time.
3. Get up on time so  you can start the day unrushed.
4. Say No to projects that won't fit into  your time schedule, or that will compromise your mental health
5.  Delegate tasks to capable others.
6. Simplify and unclutter your  life.
7. Less is more. (Although one is often not enough, two are often  too many.)
8. Allow extra time to do things and to get to  places.
9. Pace yourself. Spread out big changes and difficult projects  over time; don't lump the hard things all together
10. Take one day at a  time.
11. Separate worries from concerns. If a  situation is a concern, find out what God would have you do and let go of the  anxiety. If you can't do anything about a situation, forget  it.
12. Live within your budget; don't use credit cards for ordinary  purchases.
13. Have backups; an extra car key in your wallet, an extra  house key buried in the garden, extra stamps, etc.
14 K.M.S. (Keep Mouth  Shut). This single piece of advice can prevent an enormous amount of  trouble.

21. Write down thoughts and inspirations.
22.  Every day, find time to be alone.

24. Make friends with Godly people.
25. Keep  a folder of favorite scriptures on hand.
26. Remember that the shortest  bridge between despair and hope is often a good "Thank you Jesus."
27.  Laugh.
28. Laugh some more!
29. Take your work seriously, but not  yourself at all.
30. Develop a forgiving attitude (most people are doing  the best they can).
31. Be kind to unkind people (they probably need it  the most).
32. Sit on your ego.
33. Talk less; listen  more.
34 Slow down.
35. Remind yourself that you are  not the general manager of the universe.
36 Every night before bed, think  of one thing you're grateful for that you've never been grateful for before. GOD  HAS A WAY OF TURNING THINGS AROUND FOR YOU. "If God is for us, who can be  against us?" (Romans 8:31)
