Here are the ninth and tenth ways to rapidly reduce your stress.

9.       Make life a journey. Don’t rush life to reach the goal at the end. You will discover, as you get older, time is truly the number one most wasted natural resource in your life. It cannot be replenished, cannot be recycled, and most certainly cannot be saved.
Try to make an adventure out of everything you do in life, so that each day becomes an enjoyable learning and growing experience. Avoid wishing time away as you feel impatient to finish a task, “just make it to the weekend’, or “finally get to take a vacation”. For as an old proverb notes, “every minute you wish away will forever be lost in time”.

10.  Contemplate your spiritual self at least once every day. I believe each of us was “made” for a purpose and that in order to reach our fullest potential in life, we must work toward completion of that purpose. The human body is much too complex to have been thrown together by chance and with no specific design in mind. Indeed, your creator had both design and purpose. When you believe in a higher order in life, faith can reduce stress in the same way it can “move mountains”.
