I am working on putting my <a href="http://www.soyouwanttoteach.com/25-tips-for-less-stress/" rel="nofollow">25 Tips For Less Stress</a> together into an ebook with some added tips. I hope to have that finished by the end of this month. As I hear from more young teachers and those of us who were once young teachers, I realize that stress is one of the largest factors in quitting the teaching profession. Lingo_33 also brings up a great point about the validity of student stress. I wonder if I could work on putting together an <i><b>Instant Destress Guide For Students</b></i> also. Yes.

It seems that the list provided is common sense, but when you are in that mode of stress, nothing seems as common sense. "Be realistic", I think is one that everyone needs to remember at all times. Not only can this list be applied to teaching, but to students as well. This is a great list.

I have a hard time with #34 (perfectionism) and will work something to death to the point that it isn't fun anymore. I also have trouble with #41 (emails and phone) and my husband is always telling me that they are luxuries and not necessities. Unless it is my parents (who are in their 80s), I shouldn't have to feel like I need to answer it whenever it rings. I have gotten better at that, but it is hard. Thanks for the suggestions of some things to do. What an awesome list! I have a hard time with #34 (perfectionism) and will work something to death to the point that it isn’t fun anymore.
