Stress gets a bad rap. But there is positive stress, called Eustress. This is that adrenaline rush you get that helps you finish that project on time. It is that feeling of excitement when you are in a demanding position and you meet or exceed expectations – that thrill of coming through.

Positive stress is what gives life that zing! That oomph! It gives you the energy to jump in the game and go for it – take the bull by the horns and run with it. Positive stress is that motivating factor that keeps you going.

Imagine not having stress. Imagine living a life of boredom. Even negative stress gets you out of the chair now and then and onto something else. Although stress gets a bad rap there are certainly benefits that keep you motivated, moving and achieving goals.
