Instead of letting bad stress drag you down the path of unhappiness, exhaustion and burnout, use these six simple steps to harness its power in a positive way.
为了不让压力把自己变得很不快乐，筋疲力尽，通过以下6个简单的步骤，让自己积极应对压力。
Be honest 真诚对待你内心的声音。
Only by listening without judgment to that inner dialogue can you begin to understand where those automatic responses come from and then replace them with a more helpful and motivational commentary that can guide you through various tough situations.
只有通过聆听内心的声音，不做任何判断，你才能逐渐懂得那些下意识的反应是怎么来的，然后用一个更有帮助且具有激励作用的评价来代替那些下意识的反应。这些评价能为你在不同的艰难处境中指明方向。
Catch it before it starts.先下手为强。
Once a stress response is under way, theres no stopping it biologically, which makes it even more critical to develop foresight into dealing with stressful situations in a constructive manner. Since control is so closely link ed to the anxiety aspects of the stress response, focusing your energy on determining what you can (and cant!) affect is one of the most powerful, proactive tools available for dealing with the downsides of stress.
一旦做出了应激反应，通过生理的方式阻止它是没有用的。通过建设性的方式培养远见来应对压抑的状态，这样更重要。因为抑制和应激反应的焦虑部分关系很密切，所以将你的能力集中在考虑你能影响什么，不能影响什么，这是你能做到应对压力消极方面最强大和最积极的方法。
Re将挑战看做机会。
This mental trick not only makes you more resilient to the negative impact of stress, but also sets you up for more successful stress face-offs in the future. That repeated exposure lends the body psychologically as much as physically a sense of control that resurfaces when similar experiences arise.
这一条不仅让你对压力的消极影响更能轻松应对，而且能让你在未来应对压力时，更得心应手。在将来遇到相似经历的时候，你的身体在肉体和心理两方面对压力都能做出抑制。
Think 想一想什么适合你，什么不适合你。
Everyone is different when it comes to the particulars (not to mention intensity) of their stress triggers. Some people fear public speaking while others cant get enough of it. Some people seek the thrill of tight deadlines while others cant stand it.
说道触发压力的具体细节（更不用说强度）的时候，每个人的情况就不尽相同了。有些人害怕公开演讲，有些人求之不得。有些人喜欢紧张截止日期的刺激感，有些人则无法忍受。
Just as its import ant to listen to how you speak to yourself regarding stressful situations, knowing the circumstances, activities or personality traits in others that make you feel less in control and full of consistent anxiety can help you tremendously in managing your unnecessary stress exposure.
倾听自己是如何谈论压力是很重要的，同样的，了解那些能让你崩溃和持续焦虑的环境，活动和别人的个性特征是很重要的，会给你很大帮助，让你避免不必要的压力。
Change up your surroundings.改变环境
Good stress is a motivator to finish a given task at work or push for a challenging promotion -- in a sense, it helps us thrive. Without it, we would often lack the motivation to achieve anything at all. 积极的压力能成为完成任务的动力，让你更进一步。某种程度上说，压力帮助了我们。没有压力，我们就会经常缺少让自己有所成就的动力。
Rather than sticking with surroundings that perpetuate the burnout -- and breakdown -- of the body, consider making lifestyle changes that would help reduce the amount of "bad" stress in your life automatically.
不要长期让身体处于精疲力竭和崩溃的环境下，考虑一下改变生活方式，这样会自然而然减少生活中的消极压力。
