Stress tips

A local (cbs I think) television station gave the following tips for handling stress during a recent broadcast:

1. Decide: Is this important?
If no: let it go. If yes, go to question #2.
2. Is it reasonable to be angry?
If no: let it go. If yes, go to question #3.
3. Can I modify the situation?
If no: let it go. If yes, modify the situation.

I use a similar method for handling stress in my position as caregiver. When something goes awry, I always evaluate: Is this worth getting upset about? Usually it is not.
