For this week's tech blog I will be talking about stress management, and how I deal with stress. The strategies I used are the one day at a time strategy, as well as the stress diagram. With the stress diagram, I labeled essays as half the stress for me, and that goes for every course. I then labeled exams for one quarter of my diagram, and the other quarter consisted of studying for tests. Essays are the most stressful for me because I am not a good writer and I never know what to say, or how to start sometimes if it is a topic I know nothing about/am not interested in. To deal with all these type of assignments, I usually just listen to music, or eat food to relieve some stress at the end of each day. Next, I will be talking about the one day at a time strategy. There is a lot of stress that runs through every individuals body throughout every day, so the best thing to do is take one day at a time when dealing with stress. Thinking about other days, and days to come, is just too much stress on your shoulders. So, throughout the day, I wrote down what was stressing me out on a piece of paper. When I went home later that night, I would try stress relieveing strategies such as taking deep breaths, eating foood, or laying down and getting some rest. I then cross off the stress for that day, and when I do enough strategies to release all my stress, I feel a lot better and usually turn into a great mood after that, I would recommend these strategies to anyone no matter who you are, because everyone deals with stress, and theres nothing you can do about it!

Glad to see that the one day at a time and the stress diagram strategies worked out for you well. It's nice to see that it gave you a rather positive result. I think the diagram worked in a very similar way for me as well, I noticed after I could see all stresses in my life, and their causes, I felt much better about myself as a student. Great blog post, keep up the good work.
