John Lennon got it right when he said “Life is what happens when you’re making plans”.

In some ways, Plans should be called Spoiler Alerts or mood swing guarantors.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]

“Life is what happens when you’re making plans”

  • Money
  • Health
  • Family
  • Deaths
  • Relationships

They are standard for every year we’re alive, but the real difference is the frustration levels and surely a worldwide pandemic is guaranteed to raise frustration levels, and almost every other negatively slanted emotion, to unprecedented heights![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Lessons Learned” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=””][vc_column_text css=””]For most of us last year and this year, we have learned something that enhanced self-understanding. I think we should strike that as a WIN-WIN.

Make no mistake about this …

[/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”FRUSTRATION kills.” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=””][vc_column_text css=””]Frustration helps create anxiety, anger, and sadness. It increases the body’s BAD responses to stress, such as over-eating, smoking, excess alcohol …

MENTALLY you may be driven to …

bite your nails – never a good look and not great for your gut
gnash your teeth – bad for your jaw and your teeth which, as you age, become weaker
punch walls – ouch!
scream – highly recommended (make sure you’re miles away from other humans) or (even more highly recommended), beat the mattress to death with a tennis racquet
tear your hair out – NO NO!
punch somebody’s lights out – alas, the Law takes a dim view of this type of behaviour
eat tubs of ice cream

PHYSICALLY it may lead to …

  • raised blood pressure
  • obesity
  • diabetes
  • heart disease

It depends on the situation!

Is Frustration stress?

Not really.

It just causes stress to take over your mental, emotional and physical being and combine them all in an Adrenaline-loaded heap.

Anything that leads to stress is a killer because STRESS KILLS.

GOT IT???
