Our minds contain the engine that drives our souls and emotions. When our minds are not living in victory, our whole body system is affected. Our internal state is portrayed externally through the way we talk, relate with others and how we express ourselves. In this article I will try to show you that it is possible to live in victory and make our minds reign in every situation. It is possible to keep stress from making a habitation in our hearts.

How can we keep stress at bay?



1. Avoid seeking approval from people.
The worst way of building self esteem is by relying on people’s opinion on what they think about you. Learn to feel good about yourself and approve what you feel is good for you. Learn to be the person who approves himself before anyone else does.

2. Avoid pessimistic people around you.
Pessimists are the people who only see the bad things in everything they put their eyes upon. These people will see a half empty glass of juice when the optimists will see a half full glass. Avoid friends who are always negative because they will only make your life miserable. Negativity and positivism is contagious.

3. Avoid making pity party about yourself.
Please avoid having a ‘meeting’ with yourself about how useless you are, how unlucky you were born and how you are good for nothing. These things will only worsen your situation and leave more hopeless than you were before. This is blasphemy against the God who created you both fearfully and wonderfully.

4. Avoid staying alone and idle.
As the old adage goes, ‘an idle mind is
the devil’s workshop’, it truly is for people who are suffering from stress. Learn to keep yourself busy at all times so that your brain has something constructive to think about. Avoid sleeping as much as possible during the daytime. If you have nothing to do, walk about, visit someplace or someone.

5. Avoid regretting about your past.
There is nothing we can do about our past but there are a lot of things we can do about our future. Purpose to work on your future, make a step towards your greatness and do not fear to start small. A bright future begins with a dream, a positive mind, and a desire to keep on keeping on. God bless you as you begin all over again. It is not only possible but many others have done it and made it. So, why not you this time? Good luck!
