Many people these days feel overwhelmed by the challenges of day-to-day life: work, finances, family, and so on and so forth. Human beings have a limited amount of energy, mental and physical, to deal with these stresses.
My advice is to take time to do things that make you happy, whatever that may be. For me, it’s reading a book, playing with my children, or going for a jog. To point out the obvious, reading a book is not going to solve all of your problems. However, removing yourself from the stress, if only for a little while, can help you put your challenges in the proper perspective. It can help you re-focus your energy where it will be most effective.
