The Mind of My Thoughts Today

How do we handle the pressures of life and still keep it together. There is the pressure to succeed when everyone else around you expects you too. The pressure to be true to your calling, even though sometimes you don't feel like it. The pressure to do the right thing always because you are known as the good guy (what is that about). And last but not least, the pressure to fit into these stereo types of being a size perfect 8 or being a "DIVA"and of course my favorite the pressure of "prestige, power, and popularity" in today's society. Well I say to hell with pressure and all of the other stereo types. It is time for you to be you no matter how it looks to anyone else. I believe that pressure from your surroundings is something that you could never ignore, but at the same time you don't have to play into it's hands and allow it to cause you to conform to something you never meant to become in the first place. So how do we handle pressure? Good question. I think we should always handle pressure and take control of our own lives, or pressure will handle you.
