Psycho-Stress Management: The Short Story

A Psychologist walked around a room while teaching Stress Management to an audience. As she raised a glass of water, everyone expected they'd be asked the "half empty ot half full question. Instead, with a smile on her face, she inquired: "How heavy is this glass of water?"
Answers called out ranged from 8 Oz. to 20 Oz.
She replied, "The absolute weight doesn't matter. It depends on how long I hold it. If I hold it for a minute, It's not a problem. If I hold it for an hour, I'll have an ache in my arm. If I hold it for a day, my arm will feel numb and paralyzed. In each case, the weight of the glass doesn't change, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes"
She continued, "The stresses and worries in life are like that glass of water. Think about them for a while and nothing happens. Think about them a bit longer and they begin to hurt. And if you think about them all day long, you will feel paralyzed - Incapable of doing nothing".
REMEMBER TO PUT THE GLASS DOWN!
