ABOUT
TODAY'S TOPIC, Coping Power/Stress:
Everyone talks about time pressure and stress
and their impact at home, at work, and on health. But there is much more of a
focus on the problem than the solution. About 15 years ago Joel Bennett, the
co-host on today’s Twitter Party, spoke to a group of medical directors from
Fortune 100 companies. They told him that the biggest driver of their corporate
health care costs was stress. So he asked them what could they do to use simple
evidence-based programs known to reduce stress. Everyone told him “We don’t
have the time!” This was 15 years ago and the dysfunctional paradox of not
prioritizing stress because of time pressure is no longer just ironic. We now
have an epidemic on our hands. Job stress has now been unequivocally documented
as a primary driver of many diseases. Let’s expand on today’s topic. Some Questions to Help You Get You in the Flow *:
- How
can you succeed in coping with challenges?
- How
can you cope with stress?
- How
do you manage stress?
- What
have you learned about stress?
*
Actual questions will be numbered and posted live during the Tweet Chat.

TO READ ABOUT UPCOMING TWITTER
PARTIES. Other Tips: I also invite you to look for my Storify that is always
posted after each party on my website.
- For
those of you who have never used or followed Storify, basically it is a
social network service that creates content taken from timelines using
such social media sites as Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. Be sure to be
a participant, RT those messages you resonate with – that offer value, and
add comments to initiate conversations. Also, this will give you an
opportunity to connect with new Tweople, create possible future
partnerships and expand your Twitterverse – develop other meaningful and
mutually beneficial relationships.
- To
help others out who may have just joined the party, please RT the question along
the way.
I am in gratitude and
appreciation, thank you all! Keep the Party Going, Happy Tweeting ~
Gary
