How to Reduce Stress

　　With the constantly changing and quickening pace of modern life, many people are used to rushing through their life. People have learned to take it for granted that the stress is and will be increasing all the time. A certain degree of stress can promote our study and work, but too much stress is certainly harmful, and sometimes may even cause serious mental and physical problems. So it is necessary to know how to reduce stress.

　　Stress can come from every direction. For instance, it can come from sorts of competition with other people. It can come from having too many things for us to do and too little time to do them. It can come from our lacking confidence and admiring others.

　　There are many ways that can help us solve this problem, but the following may be the most effective. First, we should make a practical judgment on our own ability and do what we can do. Don't set a goal that is too high because there are many things in this world that are beyond our reach. Second, we should learn to be considerate and tolerant. Do not try to change other people or other things. Everything has its own way in the world. Third, we'd better not too much keen on the material thing. If you try to "keep up with the Joneses", you burden yourself with stress and can walk no longer on the road to happiness. Finally, we should keep frequent communication with our relatives and friends. Talk with them what we want and think of. Share with them our happiness and misery. This all will help us to feel better.

　　These are not necessarily the only ways to deal with stress, and it is my hope that everyone can free from stress, both mentally and physically, and live a relaxed happy life.
