一位演讲者一次在向听众解释如何减压的时候,举起一杯水问道:“这杯水有多沉?”听众的答案从20克到500克不等。演讲者说:“绝对的重量并不重要。重要的是你举的时间有多长。”
“如果我举一分钟,肯定没问题。如果举一个小时,我的右胳膊就会疼痛。如果举一天,你们就得给我叫救护车了。在这三种情况下重量都是相同的,可是我举的时间越长,它就越重。”
他继续说:“减压也是同样的道理。如果我们老是背负着压力,随着压力越来越沉,我们最后肯定承受不了。就像那杯水一样,你得把压力放下休息一会然后才能继续前进。当我们重新振作精神的时候就能继续背负着压力前进。”
“因此,今天晚上回家的时候先把工作的压力放到一边。不要把它带回家。你可以明天早上再把它拾起来。不管你现在有什么压力,如果可能的话先把它放下一会。放松心情———休息好了之后再捡起来。生命很短暂。应该享受生活!”
Alecturer when explaining stress management to an audience, raised a glass of water and asked,“How heavy is this glass of water?” The answers called out ranged from 20g to 500g, to which the lecturer replied, “The absolute1 weight doesn’t matter. It all de-pends on how long you try to hold it.”
“If I hold it for a minute, that’s not a problem. If I hold it for an hour, I’ll have an ache in my right arm. If I hold it for a day, you’ll have to call an ambulance2 for me. In each case, it’s the same weight, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes.”
He continued,“And that’s the way it is with stress manage-ment. If we carry our burdens all the time, sooner or later, as the burden becomes increasingly heavy, we won’t be able to carry on. As with the glass of water, you have toput it down for a while and rest before holding it again. When we’re refreshed3, we can carry on with the burden.”
“So, before you return home tonight, put the burden of work down. Don’t carry it home. You can pick it up tomorrow. Whatever burdens you’re carrying now, let them down for a moment if you can. Relax... then pick them up later after you’ve rested. Life is short. Enjoy it!”
