Life without stress: background at work LIFE WITHOUT STRESS: BACKGROUND AT WORK
Stress occurs only when our coping ability is not equal to the problems with which we are faced.
The disturbing nervous impulses to our brain from various sources add one to the other, so that the major problems of practical living usually become significant only when they are operating on a background of lesser problems.
The background problems consist of the minor affairs of life that continually disturb us, as well as matters of conflict and conscience within our own self.
The background at work
Our work situation often creates minor problems which form a background for our major problem.
For a start, let us take some simple examples from real life.
The desire to get on
«It's the job. I'm tense all the time. My GP says if I don't 6 let up I shall have an ulcer. By the way my tummy feels, I think I have one now. An ulcer at thirty-five!
'Let up. He does not know the facts of life. How can I let up? It's laurels to the victor. If I let up, just for a moment, another would step into my place. What can I do?»
What would you do? Perhaps the story comes near to home.
His doctor says, 'Let up'. Well, that's not what I say. The central idea of the self-management of stress is to live the full life, but to be able to live it in such a way that we don't have to let up. Rather it is a matter of letting our brain learn to work in adverse situations without becoming disorganized.
He is faced with the problems of work and his desire to get on. He is just coping, just. His brain is integrating the inflow of disturbing impulses with nothing to spare. In this state, if he should be confronted with some major problem - serious sickness in the home, the failure of some investment - there will be more disturbing impulses than his brain can integrate. He will come under stress, and will exhibit the symptoms of stress in one form or another.
So a first principle in the self-management of stress is to learn to have our brain running actively in the fullness of life, but at the same time with some reserve of coping power. With something up its sleeve, as it were. Then, in the advent of some unexpected major problem, our brain is still able to integrate the additional flow of disturbing impulses.
