    If you are too familiar with the physical feeling of being stressed, it may be time to make some changes. Here are a few ways that can help you keep calm and carry on.

    Work out.

    When we are stressed, the part of our brain that registers fear lights up like a fireworks display.  It can make stress hormones (激素) less active. And it can cause your body to release endorphins (胺多酸), which are feel-good chemicals that can help improve your mood.

    Be decisive.

    Sandwich or salad? Break up or stay together? And it turns out that being good at making decisions may be good for your health. Want to be more determined? Simplify your decisions by focusing on facts. So you understand what's really important. Looking for information about your situation can help you make more reasoned judgments and can help you feel more confident.

    Bottling up your feelings causes anxiety. Next time you're sweating something, pause to examine your situation more closely. Ask yourself: what are the positives? How can I look at this as an inspiring challenge rather than a problem? Changing the way you look at a situation can help you respond in a less stressful way.

    See every glass as at least half full.

     You may tend to have a negative outlook, but chances are that you can change your outlook through your experiences. The best way is to deliberately avoid other pessimists and surround you with optimists.  Having something that you are enthusiastic about and achieving goals related to it can help many people have a more optimistic outlook.

    A. Are you a pessimist?

    B. Take steps to reduce stress.

    C. Regard problems as opportunities.

    D. Maybe a tough work assignment will help you learn.

    E. It's also important to feel as if you have a purpose every day.

    F. Regular exercise can provide a satisfying release for negative feelings.

    G. We face dozens of choices every day and each of them requires us to make a decision.
