The force exterted on a square inch of blah blah blah.
Pressure basically means to press. So where did all this stress come from when people are under pressure?
Lets take a look at that phrase "to be under pressure." People can be put under pressure when they are asked and expected to get something done. Usually with consequences if it isn't done, hence where the stress comes from.
But then why do we use the phrase "under pressure"? When all that means is a force being exacted?
To use a very old adage, diamonds are created from great pressure. I like that phrase.
When I'm put under pressure I love it, because it is forcing me to become better. I can't help it. It is an outside force, pressing down on me and making me harder, and stronger.Not stressy.
Utilising pressure to create a better version of yourself is a freeing experience. It is no longer you that has to pull out all the stops to become the perfect version of yourself, as it is instead life doing it for you.
Everything you do causes you to be under at least some pressure.
Relish it, it is there for a reason.
