Answer
Discussion Forum 12-Stress and Tension
Stress is so personal, and so are the factors that cause it in life (Yoder-Wise, 2014). Developing a proper Personal Stress-Management Plan and strictly observing it can help lower stress without causing harm. It is only possible to create this after pinpointing the actual stress factor. Certain activities have to be accomplished in the plan to come up with that stress management plan that will benefit the developer in the long run. These activities include prioritizing what one should do, organizing areas of one’s life to enable efficient functioning, setting aside time for oneself and setting limits (Seaward, 2013).
Prioritization is always the most challenging part of creating a Personal Stress-Management Plan (Girdano, Dusek & Everly Jr, 2012). To make prioritization easier, it is always appropriate that the items being prioritized are placed into three categories: critical, important, and postpone or delegate. Critical items are those that have to be completed immediately because deadlines depend on them (Girdano, Dusek & Everly Jr, 2012). Some of the tasks that create conflict or those that are emotionally difficult should occupy this category. The important items are those that, though are not as immediate as the critical, are still urgent. The postpone category is a true stress reliever as it lets one delegate the tasks. These tasks could possible slide slightly while one is taking the time to tend to those on the critical category (Girdano, Dusek & Everly Jr, 2012).
Improper prioritization will act as the blocker to success. Sometimes an item can be put into the important category, yet it is a critical factor (Seaward, 2013). Failure to address it with the urgency it deserves can compromise on the success of the whole plan. Sometimes one can concentrate so much on the critical category and fail to address the other categories. In such a case, the tasks in the delegate category could slide to such an extent that they cause a failure in the development of the plan (Girdano, Dusek & Everly Jr, 2012).
