Managing stress & anxiety

Managing stress is often a battle we face with the struggle to cope, and common model of coping is "keeping above water." Every now and then the food rises and coping skills supposedly being able to hold your breath until the flood subsides, most of us do this when we shouldn't. However, it doesn't work like that. Our perception of it is more like there's no water to keep head above. Being able to see things in this way requires a change in how we see things in the world as changing your mind positive thinking. There's a common phrase "shit happens" misery is optional this means you should stay in a job, relationship or situation you hate, feeling flood rising is your choice! You could ask yourself what has stopped me from making the next move? Mostly likely fear of course, I know the feeling myself the government of New Zealand doesn't care who they put in the work world they just want less people on the benefits this can cause us anxiety not knowing where it is going. Just remember you can handle these life events if you choose to stand strong, no matter what the world throws at you stay strong happiness is a choice we make and misery. Fear is a choice as well.

The Importance of Going After your goal You Want

 Importance of achieving goals  My dream came true!  Experiencing self-doubt is part of being human. It is easy to automatically assume you are not good enough, not talented, or not skilled enough to dream big or get the outcome you want. But I did it! I made my dream happen in the music industry. To assume other people’s  dreams  come true, but not yours. I think this can be especially true for those in a minority group including people with chronic health concerns or a disability.

We’re all about growth mindsets and encouraging people to adopt a positive outlook on learning. So, let’s look at growth vs. fixed mindsets together, explore the science, and see how people can change their mindsets over time.  Growth vs. fixed mindsets for life  Science once told us that the human brain stops developing in childhood, however, we now know that the brain is constantly evolving and changing.
