We encounter pressure every single day in our life and work, and there are two main causes for it. The first is that wherever we work or live we will encounter challenges, difficulties and obstacles. All of these will create pressure for us. This kind of pressure is regarded as natural. As long as the hurdles(障碍) are overcome, the pressure will disappear naturally. But, the second cause of pressure is not so easily eliminated. The second cause of pressure is our own imaginings. This pressure from our own thoughts is much more difficult to get rid of because it has no real cause. When we feel under pressure, we should first examine our lives and work to see whether there have been any recent changes. If so, have these changes have created new challenges, difficulties, and obstacles? If there happen to be any, it means that you are experiencing natural pressure, and as soon as the barrier is crossed, the pressure will fade naturally. On the other hand, if we find there have been no changes but we still feel pressured, then there is a big possibility that our feelings of pressure arise from the second cause, namely our own foolish act of indulging in agonizing delusions. If this happens, what should we do? The simplest way to deal with the problem is to transform our thought patterns and habits. In other words, we need to get a “brain transplant.” If you often have anxiety, frustration, or pressure coming out of nowhere, if you were feeling fine when you suddenly became depressed because of too much pressure, then without doubt your subconscious is up to something. The best way to resolve this problem is to change your thinking habit. Start thinking positively. Always look on the bright side of life, and replace your old mind with a new one. And then, all your worries will be solved and all the pressures will vanish. I wish everyone a successful “brain transplant,” and let your heart be joyful and your spirits lifted. 33.
