    Thumbs up Re: help required to handle stress

    One gets stressed out only when he fears something.
    As jainbrijesh said, be positive. (I know it is very convenient to say these things but extremely difficult to impliment for some people).

    Here is what I used to do. (I usually never get stressed). I'm not very much positive but I have extreme confidence. (Confidence of handling anything, even if things go wrong). That keeps my stress away. i am very confident that even if something does go wrong today I can more than make up for it tomorrow.

    The key thing is, never fear failure. Failure is a part of life and never get stressed thinking about failure. For example, when you attend an interview what worse could happen? You won't clear the interview and at the maximum waite for 6 months and you can write the same interview again!(not to forget thousands of other companies which are offering jobs). Why should one be stressed now? So my friend, think. You have nothing to loose in the interview (Though you think you might not get the job, it is no big loss. ), then there is nothing to be stressed about. Is ther?

    Re: help required to handle stress

    i agree with the other guys but another thing i have realised is that we do not only fear failure itself but morewe think about what other people will say. The fear of critisism its a snare, you can no longer make a decision, that builds up upon your stress. The greatest achievers in life are those that have had the greatest critisism think of anyone you need not to be stressed you can do anything only if you put your heart to it

    Hi,
    I think kalayama, If you think positive then only you can be confident.How you can be confident if there are negative points striking in your mind.

    You have a new dress.You get confident about it if you like it, you are positive that whatsoever you have is good.If you are thinking in a way that it is not as good as of my friend, how you will be confident?

    I think we both are right, Positive thinking and confidence are so much interconnected, you can't leave one.

    I am telling you the truth, my friends all says, you are really a positive thinker thats why you are so confident.

    With regards,
    Brijesh Jain.

    Be confident in that 5
    Well Prepared in that 5
    Have faith in that 5
    Instead of confusing urself in all 10, have confident in any 5 and make urself ready for what ever u know. U are the only person who can have faith on u in any situation.

    I think confidence comes only when you are prepared throughly and you know what you are saying. So prepare your answers well and give mock interveiws in front of friends. Practice it so much that when you actually go to one, it seems the same !!

    Re: help required to handle stress

    hi friend
    no need to take stress!There is no point in takint stress!Ofcourse its not helping u in any way!But surely it will reduce ur efficieny.So y take something that is of no use, and if u take it u will land into unnecessary troubles!

    Since u r studying,concentrate on ur studies.
    For getting job u will get many oppurtunities.But plan and study apti,general HR questions.Whatever u study,etc do it by heat.

    But plz dont take stress!
    bye

    Re: help required to handle stress

    Well, as we can see most of us give stress on being positive and confident. Well, in reality what matters is how you attain these.

    Positive attitude is not easy to be gained. We need to focus on what we are doing, not on the result. I'm saying this because, thinking about result brings in negative thoughts in many people. (Like what if I fail????).

    The best way to gain confidence is bu succeeding, but for succeding one needs a bit of confidence.

    As Brijesh said, try to think positively. Assume as though you can never fail. And face every situation with this frame of mind. But, the problem with this approach is, if one fails, he will loose all the faith in himself.

    So what best can be done????

    Never bother about the results. I reapeat, it is the fear of failure that holds a man back. Eliminate that fear. How? If you think you will never fail, then there is a thread of loosing all the confidence if you fail. Hence have alternate plans in case failure.

    It is easier said that done.

    But all I know is Fear is the biggest roadblock in any human. Face your fear, and you will never be stressed again.

    To be frank I am an outright pessimist!!!! I expect myself to fail in eveything I do, but what makes me confident is the fact that I don't fear failure. I already have a plan ready in case of failure. I never let failure unsettle me. That's it.

    -Kalayama

    PS : My thoughts might be incoherent as I am feeling a little ill. I will repharase this post later if necessary.

    Re: help required to handle stress

    Hi friend venkatesh, have full confident in you... Dont care what others say abt you... After an interview if they are not selecting u then think that the "company in very unlucky by having a person like you". Be always positive... Mainly in an interview be confident but dont make it as overconfident... If you are not confident in any of the answers thrown at you then tell them very frankly "sorry i'm not sure", dont get tensed and say wrong answers. Suppose if they are asking some questions very far from ur area of interest then its ur resposibility to divert them into ur field of interest... Thanks
