What I’ve Learned From Stress On Tuesdays

Tuesdays are an opportunity to start over.  If I’ve had a "case of the Mondays," I can regroup and get back on track for the week.  Tuesdays are the days when I seek to get in a groove and get things done.

Today is an important day for the country as there is a presidential debate tonight.  I need to remind myself to not stress out about any of the lies or propaganda that continue to be spread—and how so many Christians willingly eat it up.  This makes me angry.  I cannot get stressed out about it.  The political deception of so many Christians is an ingrained and generational problem that will take a long time until our hearts and minds look to Christ as our King—he has dominion over all things.  And that is something I am not stressing over, but gladly welcoming into this world.

As part of the HigherCallings blog network, I have been made keen to
what others are doing in the blogosphere concerning work and faith. 
This week Robert Hzurek of Middle Zone Musings is leading a series on What I’ve Learned From Stress
It’s kind of like a synchroblog of sorts.  If you blog, feel free to
join in too.  I have decided to write a post on each day and how stress
relates to it.

    I love this concept: Tuesdays as the REAL start of the week. Settling in, building momentum for the rest of the week, taking a bead on what’s important to accomplish…
    Thanks again!

  2. That’s a great way of looking at it. I’m retired, so there’s little difference between my weekdays and weekends. To a certain extent that was true even when I was working. I had a job that I loved and I took a break when my enthusiasm started to wane. I never had a case of “the Mondays”.

    On the other hand, when there are things on my Possibility List (I don’t do TO DO lists, they’re too bossy for me) that I don’t want to do, I ease into them slowly to build up momentum. It’s pretty much what you’re talking about.

    Good post. Great idea. Thanks.
