pressure makes me stronger英语作文

第一篇

\" I can‘t stand the pressure and competition,\" explained one friend of mine when asked why he decided to quit his highly-paid but demanding position in his company recently. My friend may have his own reasons, but I don‘t think his decision is wise in reality.

It is true that my friend‘s case is not unique. In the last few years quite a number of men and women have chosen to do something less competitive at the cost of a comfortable, easy life a highly-paid job can obtain. They are afraid that the stresses and strains of work will rob them of joy and happiness and do them harm both physically and mentally. In fact, however, stress isn‘t the bad thing it is often supposed to be. Unless it gets out of control, a certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and challenge, and to give purpose and significance to an otherwise meaningless, idle life. People under stress tend to express their full range of potential and to actualize their own personal worth - the very aim of a human life.

Stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is no way to avoid it. What we can do is to develop our adaptive abilities to deal with it rather than to escape from it.

“我无法忍受压力和竞争，”当被问及为什么他决定辞去公司高薪但要求很高的职位时，我的一位朋友解释说。我的朋友可能有他自己的原因，但我不认为他的决定在现实中是明智的。

的确，我朋友的情况并非独一无二。在过去的几年里，相当多的男人和女人选择做一些竞争力较弱的事情，而代价是高薪工作可以获得的舒适，轻松的生活。他们害怕工作的压力和紧张会剥夺他们的快乐和幸福，并在身体和精神上造成伤害。然而，事实上，压力并不是它通常应该做的坏事。除非它失控，否则一定程度的压力对于提供动力和挑战至关重要，并为原本毫无意义的闲置生活赋予目标和意义。处于压力下的人倾向于表达他们的全部潜力，并实现自己的个人价值 - 这是人类生活的目标。

压力是日常生活的自然组成部分，没有办法避免它。我们能做的是培养我们的适应能力来处理它，而不是逃避它。

随着现代生活的节奏越来越快，越来越多的人生活在巨大的压力之下。有些人害怕压力。他们认为工作的压力和紧张剥夺了他们的快乐和幸福。在他们看来，压力会对他们的身体和精神造成伤害。这就是为什么他们更喜欢竞争不那么激烈和费劲的东西，而不是要求更高和更具挑战性的东西。其他人则认为，压力并不像通常应该的那样糟糕。除非它是压倒性的，否则一定程度的压力对于提供动力和刺激至关重要。没有压力，你可能会懈怠并闲置你的时间。它赋予了原本毫无意义、沉闷的生活的目的和意义。处于压力下的人倾向于充分发挥自己的潜力并实现自己的目标。在我看来，我们不应该逃避压力，而应该面对它。我们能做的就是适应压力并从中获利，而不是避免它。

Those who live in cities around the world are likely going to have similar experiences about living and the associated challenges regardless of their location on the globe. Most of these challenges revolve around stress which studies have shown is a part of living. Regardless of what you do and your profession and place stress is not avoidable but could be minimized. Those who see stress as an enemy will probably live an irritable life which is quite unnecessary.

不管你生活在世界上哪一个城市,你都很可能会遇到类似的生活经历和各种各样的挑战．研究证明，大部分这些来自各种压力的挑战已经成为人们生活的一部分，无论你干什么，从事何种职业，身处何方，你都无法避免各种压力，但你却能最大限度的减少压力．因此人们大可不必将压力视为敌人从而使生活烦躁不安。

How then do we cope with stress? I am going to give you tips that have helped and are still helping me in coping with life in the city of Lagos Nigeria, the most populous African city, where orientation of people is quite different in many ways about stress and living with others.

那么我们应该如何应对压力呢？让我来告诉你一些小窍门，正是这些小窍门让我在尼日利亚的拉哥斯那样一个人口稠密，人们目标迥异的城市得以应付生活中的各种压力，处理各种人际关系。

1. Wrong views on stress 1 正确地认识压力

Get the right meanings and impression on stress. Those who misconstrued some daily activities or physical exercises as stress will likely be over burdened by what stress is not. You could read up some literatures, journals, or visit some websites and publications like this website to get to know more on stress. I believe when you can relate your activities and place them in right perspectives on what stress is then you could avoid being overwhelmed by some wrong thoughts about it.

我们对压力要有正确的认识。那些错误的把根本算不上压力的日常活动和身体锻炼看做是压力的人就会觉得负担过重,你可以通过读一些文学作品,杂志或者访问一些网页或类似的刊物来更多的了解压力。我相信如果你能正确的'认识你所从事的活动,并且能够以正确的眼光来看待什么是压力,你就不会被那些实际并不存在的所谓压力所折服。

2. Do not make stress an issue 2 不要过分担心压力

Those who will readily be devastated by stress are those who see it as an issue. It is better to ride on the wave of stress rather than be consumed and overtaken by it. So do not see stress

as a problem but as a challenge of living that can be handled and live with, with few consequences.

被压力所催垮的往往是那些过分担心压力的人。我们应该把压力看作是可以应对的生活中的一些无法避免的挑战,它们并不会带来多么严重的后果,因为积极面对压力总比被它压倒好。

3. Schedule your activities right 3 合理安排好你的活动

It may sounds strange to be advised on scheduling your activities which you have been doing for many years. If you have been bothered by stress then I think it is advisable to reappraise your activities in the light of this understanding in order to identify some probable flaws that may hitherto be hidden. It could be revealing. Do not therefore live on assumption but know that the way you schedule your activities can out blow the impact of stress on you. For instance schedule only the number of activities you could take per day. Do not over estimate your abilities but take only the number of activities you think you could successfully carry out in a day. An uncompleted task could leave you spent.

有人建议你合理安排好你的活动,听起来也许觉得很奇怪,因为几年来你一直都在安排。我觉得如果你一直被压力所困扰的话,从这个角度出发重新安排你的活动是一种明智的做法。这样一来可以发现

一些迄今为止仍然隐藏在你计划中不足.因此不要生活在假想中,你必须明确,你的安排可能会消除你的压力。比如说,拟定好你一天能完成的事情的数量,不要高估你的能力,只要列出你能在一天能成功完成的即可。因为没完成的任务会让你觉得筋疲力尽。
