Stress becomes power

In the article, ’’ Coping With Stress’’ , the author says that stress sometimes gives people power, if they know how to change their thinking or manage stress. First, people have the ability to control stress by themselves. According to Weiss’s experiment, passive animals more easily get ulceration than active animals. Therefore, people should avoid getting illness by creating their ability to control stress. Second, people will reduce stress if they can predict bad things. People will not get hurt easily, if they know what will happen in the future. Third, people should accept bad things that are unpredictable. People should know that they can not control everything so unpredictable things are parts of our life. Finally, people can become energy by getting out of stress in daily life, if they know how to cope with stress.
 
People can deal with stress by three easy steps. They need to exercise frequently in daily life. They should develop the power to identify stress. They should accept stress happening.
 
First, people need to exercise every day. People can lower stress by exercising frequently in daily life, because exercise makes energy for people. They will feel hopeful and enjoy their life if they do exercise frequently. Therefore, stress will not affect their life. They can forget stress and enjoy themselves when they do exercise.
 
Second, people should identify stress. They should recognize what stress is. Stress makes different feelings for people so they should be alert to these symptoms. When people find their stress in the first time, they can fight stress quickly.
 
Third, people should accept stress in their life. People sometimes can not cope with stress well because it is hard for they to accept stress. For example, one family member died in an accident. People will feel shock and they do not know how to accept the truth. They can accept the bad truth by talking with friends or do exercise. If they do not accept any bed thing, they will become sick and tend to suicide. 
 
Therefore, people should train themselves to accept these kinds of things happening.
 
In conclusion, people should deal with stress by themselves. They should make a plan for exercise, identify stress, and accept stress. They should be aware of stress in their life and know stress affects them a lot. They must believe that they can cope with stress well.
