DefinitionOf
Stress Stress is a condition of feeling
experienced when a person perceives that demands exceed the personal and social resources the individual is able to mobilize. People feel little stress when they have the time experience and resources to manage a situation. They feel greater stress when they think that they can not handle the demands put upon them.

Power, but little control...
Unfortunately, this mobilization of the body for survival also has negative consequences. In
this state, we are excitable, anxious, jumpy and irritable. This reduces our ability to work
effectively with other people. With trembling and a pounding heart, we can find it difficult to execute precise, controlled skills. And the intensity of our focus on survival interferes with our ability to make fine judgments based on drawing information from many sources. We find ourselves more accident-prone and less able to make good decisions.

Job stress management from mind tools:
In all of these cases, and in many others, reasonable people can make unreasonable demands with or without knowing it. If you add into this the concept of “stretch goals”, the fact that people making requests may not have correctly appreciated the situation, and the fact that people may be playing normal commercial games, you can see how problems arise.This tool helps you to work through apparently unreasonable demands to understand what lies behind them, and develop appropriate solutions to them. It helps you to work effectively with the person making the demand to find a satisfactory solution, rather than just assuming that the other person is “difficult and unreasonable”. This helps you to reduce the stress that these situations can cause.
