Without a certain level of stress or pressure to motivate and challenge us, life would be boring and unrewarding. However, when stress builds to extreme levels and we are unable to cope, our physical and mental capacity to enjoy life to the fullest can be significantly reduced.
Stress can be defined as the physical, mental, and emotional reaction to demands made on us as individuals; or as any demand that requires some kind of physical or emotional adjustment.
What happens to motivation when there is a bad match between the person, what they are being asked to do, and the way they are being asked to do it? Stress, after all, is motivation gone bad. This eLearning course presents a range of strategies individuals can use to recognise pressure in their own lives and employ a variety of techniques to help reduce stress whenever it occurs. Most people complete the course in about an hour.
