Sam Elman-Stress diagram

This week in CLS105 we learned about some stress strategies. Everyone gets stressed and it is a big part of life. I get stressed very easily. The strategy that I decided to use was Stress Diagram. So i was very excited about this strategy. The two courses that i thought would work best with this strategy was WRT105 and COU101.

Stress Diagram is a strategy where you can list out everything that stresses you out and rank them by making a diagram. The reason that i choose this was because i get stressed very easily and it can create a problem for me. So i thought this would be very helpful for me to be able to list it all out and see how to improve from getting stressed.

The reason that i thought WRT105 would be good a choice for this is because their are times where are i can get very stressed with essays and other readings. It was important for me to be able to identify the small things that i get stressed out from and see how i can improve.

The reason that i thought COU101 would be helpful was because this is also a course were i get really stressed because i need to be on top of everything and all the assignments are due at similar times. Exams are my biggest issues and i get anxiety. Its not that the assignments are difficult its just very stressful how its all so close to each other and not much time to get it done. This strategy was able to make me a little less stressed because i was able to write it all out.

Since i am an Aural learner i sometimes have difficult making charts and diagrams. So i was worried if this would help me or not. But after doing it i had a very positive experience and it really made me feel less stressed.
