    Honestly, while I was getting the smart and focus two assignment done I imagined myself setting up different types of goals and not achieving any of them. The reason I predicted this was because usually when set an objective for myself it usually backfires as a result of me not being very motivated. Nevertheless, I gave these tasks a chance to hopefully learn new strategies for the future to manage my academic and, in the long run, my career. In addition while I usually fail at achieving my goal I hoped that this new strategy would help me create a more realistic goal.…

    I tried cutting out activities, only to fill the spaces with new projects. I learned different stress management techniques, but found that they caused more stress for an unknown reason. I felt stuck and hopeless when it occurred to me that I cannot solve a problem by treating the symptoms. I had to find the source, the soft underbelly, to improve. Taking a deep breath, I reflected on why I stressed over insignificant events. My answer was surprising, I did not stress because I feared the future. What I feared was failure.…

    Concerning everything that I do on a week-to-week basis from counseling, sermon preparation, ministering, event planning, assisting my wife with home duties and children, I believe my score is great. My stress management plan includes, but is not limited to prayer, exercise, writing, and spending time with friends and my family. The five steps to time management as described by Hoeger & Hoeger are: 1.) find time killers, 2.) set long and short range goals, 3.) identity your immediate goals, 4.) use a daily planner, and 4.) conduct nightly audits (Hoeger & Hoeger pg. 393). The five steps to time management are tools that I can begin to implement into my stress management plan. One of the greatest compliments my wife and I receive on a consistent basis about our children isn’t how cute they are, it’s not how smart they are, but the greatest compliment in my eyes is how happy they are. After reviewing the Stress in America 2010 Key Findings, I realize more than ever how our stress levels and management of stress directly affect our children. I would never want our children to be stressed out in any way, especially from my mismanagement of stress. With intentional effort, I will do everything within my power to keep stress at bay, for my own health and happiness and certainly for the health and…
