Stress-Busting Secrets of Super Busy People
The journal article I reviewed revealed strategies that people use to
combat and control stress. It is a known fact that stress-free people think
more clearly. I will review several people from various backgrounds and
examine their secrets to eliminating stress.
Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee balances an extremely busy agenda and
travels often between her home in Houston and Washington D.C. Rep. Jackson Lee
is an attorney and a mother of two. Some of her favorite stress-reducing
activities include reading and working out on the treadmill. She also loves
the serenity of the ocean where she can relax and focus her thoughts to her
friends and family.
Memphis Mayor Dr. Willie W. Herenton loves to jog, play basketball, and
work in his yard. his 4.65-acre home provides him with the space and privacy to
enjoy time with his family away from the public eye. He stated that
undertaking a hobbyseems to be the best stress-buster for people.
Judge Joe Brown endured constant travel between Memphis and Los Angeles
before he retired from the criminal court bench. To ease the stress of his
hectic schedule, he found solace in athletic activities, horseback riding,
biking, and scuba diving in the Caribbean. As a single man, Judge Brown also
finds spending time with a special someone is a great way to reduce stress.
Stacey H. Davis is the president and CEO of the Fannie Mae Foundation
based in Washington, D.C. Having to oversee 100 employees and managing an
annual budget of $110 million, Davis knows what it feels like to be stressed
out. She said it is vital to maintain a balance in her life by taking care of
her own emotional, physical, and spiritual
needs. She makes time in her schedule to get a massage which she says gives
her time to meditate.
Unrelenting stress has been said to have put men and women at risk for
heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and some types of cancer. Health care
professionals endorse activities such as meditation, prayer, and other
spiritual endeavors to ease stress. There are several different methods people
use to manage stress. The important thing is that something must be undertook
to alleviate stress. Everyone should have a personal stress- buster to
maintain good health.
Through my research of the journal article, I learned how many super-
busy people cope with everyday stress in their careers. Though still curious
to find out how students my age deal with the pressures, I interviewed some
Florida students and found out some of their stress-busting secrets.
The first student I interviewed takes on fifteen credit hours and works
20 hours a week at the University. He is also the Vice-President of his
fraternity and he said all these facets don t leave him much time to waste. He
said the involvement is what keeps him going and he participates in a number of
intramural sports. He admits he is busier than he would like to be but the
success of his hard work is his best stress reliever.
The second student I interviewed takes on 12 credit hours and is a
student-athlete. He says he never gets to sleep as much as he would like to
and between school and ball, he is always on the go. He stated his biggest
stress reliever is getting away for a weekend and going to Cedar Key and
fishing with a few friends.
The third student I interviewed takes thirteen hours of schoolwork and
works around 25 hours a week in a restaurant. He says he always feels tired
but his biggest stress relievers are spending time with his girlfriend and his
friends. He also plays intramurals and works out to stay in shape.
Through my personal interviews I found that busy people don t mind the
craziness of their schedules when the results are sufficient. Intramurals are
also very important to University life and many of my peers are involved with
them.
