It applies more to leading a good life than to stress and the like.
I suppose most stress is caused by fear, often fear of failure, rejection, etc. So he does touch on the subject a bit- referring back to my original post. Lol. You don't know the outcome will be bad, but you fear it will be, so you stress. Then often stress causes you to work harder [if you've not driven yourself mad with it yet] and can prevent failure more easily. Yet in cases of say a fear of rejection causing stress, then the stress doesn't do much good, yeah? Ideally [lord know life would be easier if it were practical!], you wouldn't allow yourself to stress over things that it won't help a bit with. Ideally. In an ideal world- the ideal and reality are the same. In Reality, they are different. Or however that goes.
Thinking and gaining introspection is one thing, think yourself sick seems to bea whole other ballpark. What good comes from making yourself ill? Think a ton, sure. But that ideal world again would go against the illness bit.
...it'd be nice not to have to rely on someone else to lead sometimes though.
