my insight_7 Ways To Deal With Problems And Stress

Excerpt from the book No Condition Is Permanent

1) Don’t Just Sit There. Move!

According to many psychologists, motion creates emotion. You might notice that when you are idle, it’s easier to become depressed. Your heart rate slows down, less oxygen travels to your brain, and you are slumped somewhere in a chair blocking air from reaching your lungs.

I challenge you right now, regardless of how you are feeling, to get up and walk around at a fast tempo. Maybe you might want to go to an empty room and jump up and down a little bit. It may sound silly but the results speak for themselves. Try it now for a few minutes. By now you should begin to feel more energetic and in a better mood. It works like magic.

2) Smell The Roses. Like Jan Toles says, “Stop and smell the roses.”  How do you smell the roses? How about investing some money to go on that one trip you’ve been dreaming about? Would Paris do? There you will find lots of exotic places to jolt your imagination and spur your creativity. You can also visit the Caribbean and learn how to scuba dive. Can you imagine swimming deep under the beautiful blue water alongside some of the most beautiful creatures you have ever seen?

3) Get Some Company. If you’re like me, you have many acquaintances, but you only have a few true friends. This isn’t because I’m introverted. It is because I’m very selective about who I let enter my territory. I have worked too hard to build —my dream—and I won’t let anyone destroy it for me in the blink of an eye. When you’re feeling down, call your true friends and share what it is that you’re going through. Ask for their advice or input. While their advice or suggestions may be helpful, often you’ll find that simply verbalizing your problems will help you feel better.

4) Help Others Cope With Their Problems. It is very therapeutic when you engross yourself in helping others. You will be surprised how many people’s problems are worse than those you may be facing. You can offer others assistance in countless ways. Don’t curl up in your bed and let depression and stress take hold of you. Get out and help somebody. There are many charitable organizations that can use your help right now.

5) Laugh A Little. By now you’ve heard that laughter is a good internal medicine. It relieves tension and loosens the muscles. It causes blood to flow to the heart and brain. More importantly, laughter releases a chemical that rids the body of pains. Yet, this is just the tip of the iceberg.

6) Visit Third World Countries. Nothing is more humbling than to visit a poor country and see first hand what other human beings go through just to survive. Most people who have taken such trips come back with a deep and profound sense of gratitude and appreciation. They realize how much they’ve taken for granted without ever realizing it. I encourage you to travel whenever you can afford to do so. You’re not too busy. Do it for you. Your life will never be the same.

7) Wear Your Knees Out. If there were one sustainable remedy I could offer you when the going gets tough, it would be prayer. When everything else fails, prayer works!

the bonding

I do have bff a.k.a bestie. I only have a few of bff. Maybe I’m kinda introvert person. I do not have a lot of BF. Eventho I don’t have a lot of BF, that’s not mean I don’t like befriend with others. Maybe I’m quite selective to choose the one that can get along with me (sekepala la), truly honest each other and got same interest. In other words – have chemistry. But for me, the most important things in one relationship are understanding + give and take.

I only have a few best girlfriends during my school time. Since I’m a class representative (ketua kelas) and also head of dormitory, only less people get close to me. May be they anxious of my position (kot la, perasan) plus my sober face all the time(poyo). But the real me, was not as what they look me physically. Now I’ve quite lost contact with my school BF. Hopefully one day, we’ll meet up again.

After finished my school, I got chance to further my study at UiTM dihatiku. During an orientation program, I met one of my bff. She is NURDAYANA HANIM BT ABU HUSIN. Our friendship begins after she asking me a glue to paste her passport pic. As myself just got the glue from other student, I just ask her to give me the passport pic then pat it onto my own passport pic. As a result, the glue from my pic stick at her passport pic and finally she can paste the pic on her form ~Our friendship bond as the passport picture bonded 🙂

my insight_japan catastrophe

Recently, we have been shocked with a massive tsunami caused by earthquake and has killed a lot of people in Japan. About 590 000 people (source: united nation)have been evacuated in Japan.

Rescue teams from all over the world are being deployed to help huge number of victims there. The disaster has reminded me back-tsunami tragedy happened at Malaysia and Indonesia few years ago. The tragedy brought horrific destruction, thousand of house wrecked, missing victims and lots of people dying. I felt very sympathy to all victims. Some of them totally lost their homes, lost their cars, but the most appalling when they lost their LOVED ones.

Can you imagine how about a child that had lost their parents? They don’t have a shelter anymore, don’t have father and mother to take care of them. Oh my god, misfortune of them. Fortunately, we still within the out of harm’s way – no wars, no disaster, no monsters

Praise to almighty ALLAH because until the end of time we still under HIS protection. Syukur Alhamdulillah
