Is "stress" getting to us?

In Karate Kid II, there’s a scene where young Daniel asks Mr. Miyagi what was the best way to block a punch. Mr. Miyagi, in his broken English utters some great wisdom. “Best block. no be there.”

Best way to block a punch is be somewhere else when someone throws a punch. Best way to reduce stress is to avoid putting so much on your plate in the first place, inasmuch as you have the freedom and opportunity to do so.

Don’t compare yourself to others. It’s not worth it.

Note that blaming - for example overpopulation - ironically only ELEVATES the problem.

Blaming or finding the problem is my default mode. It's like that picture: even if you know the problem, can you actually do something about it?

My unconscious belief: I can change the world if I want to.

So yes. Overpopulation for example I can greatly affect. By becoming a billionaire philanthrope spreading the pill and vasectomy for money throughout Africa.

Stress summary:

stupid expectations - create your own expectations, not those of others
double working partners - nobody forces you to have a partner
crowded cities - nobody forces you to live in a city
more noise - find somewhere less noisy
air pollution - find somewhere less polluted
less sunshine - move south
no religion or community - religion is mind control
poor sleep (blue light)
conflicting opinions - what, you mean having to make decisions like a grown up?
no family nearby2

Every heard of this concept called 'freewill'? - if you're stressed by all this stuff realise that you have an awful lot of choice over what you do in your life

I guess you just have to slow down. When some pressures you just say no problem and continue going slow. Sounds like a plan.

People definitely have less patience nowadays. Everything seems to be available instantly so people are no longer prepared to wait.

Nice long vacation. With massages, acupressure, baths, long walks that Combien nervous system down , new emotions and breaking out of the rut overall.

Unfortunately, my recommendation is not really doable for the majority of Americans. If you go somewhere, look at Europeans. They have three to four week vacations. Those people are different and biochemical level, I guess.
