Now that you’ve made some progress on your mission statement, it’s time to make room for it. Most of us have dozens of things that waste our time, drain our energy, or block our paths. They may be little or they may be big, but even if they are tiny, cumulatively they add up and place a heavy burden on our backs.
These “Stressors” are things we tolerate. We allow them to exist and put up with them for various reasons. Some examples of stressors are clutter, clothes that don’t fit, a car that frequently breaks down, extra weight, a job that makes you miserable, inadequate income, annoying coworkers, demanding bosses, controlling family members, a house that’s too small for your needs, self-imposed deadlines, bad habits, unresolved issues with family or friends, or poor diet.
As you go through lesson 4 if you have any epiphanies you’d like to share or would like to discuss ideas on how to remove the stressors from your life, please do share them here. That way we can all learn from each other!
