How true is this.......
A Psychologist walked around a room while teaching Stress Management to a group.
As she raised a glass of water, everyone expected they'd be asked the " half empty or half full question.
Instead with a smile on her face she inquired " how heavy is this glass of water"?.
Answers called out ranged from 8oz to 20oz .
She replied " the absolute weight doesn't matter it depends on how long I hold it.
If I hold it for a minute , it's not a problem .
If I hold it for an hour I'll have a ache in my arm.
If I hold it for a day my arm will feel numb and possibly paralysed.
In each case the weight of the glass doesn't change.
BUT
The longer I hold it the heavier it becomes.
She continued,
"The Stresses and worries in life are like the glass of water.
Think about them for a while and nothing happens.
Think about them a bit longer and they begin to hurt.
AND
If you think about them all day, you will feel paralysed, incapable of doing anything. ......
REMEMBER TO PUT THE GLASS DOWN.
