We are all familiar with the little word stress. What is stress? Stress is actually normal for an individual to experience since stress can act positively to motivate us to do things. The adrenaline rush keeps us alive and excited. Stress is present in everyday life; in fact, the sources of stress are varied. For example, worrying so much about the future can cause stress as well as too much work .The effects of stress can be either fatal (e.g. high blood pressure, depression, ulcers, etc.) or fantastic (e.g. cramming in making a paper to beat a deadline; this one can inspire someone in a moments notice). It is up to the individual to learn how to harness its benefits and to avoid its risks (Hanson, 1998).
