As a physician involved in preventive medicine, I often ask my patients how they rate their current level of stress. Few ever say their stress levels are low. Most admit they’re completely stressed out. In the process of exploring why, I’ve discovered a common denominator. These people feel overloaded. Most of us are trying to do too much. And it’s a hard habit to break, because our age views multitasking as the normal way of getting things done. If we’re not juggling a dozen different commitments at once, we tend to think there’s something wrong with us.
From a medical perspective, however, the opposite is true.
