4 Lenses, How we view life and how this causes stress

4 Lenses, How we view life and how this causes stress.

When we are stressed, you can bet that it is not a single event or a number of events for that matter, It is how we are looking at life, how we interpret theses events. And understanding what the different lenses that we are looking at life through that leads to stress and depression is important. Almost as important as finding out what your dominant lens is. To do this we need to understand what the different lenses are. The good thing is there are only four lenses. ( I will go into greater detail at a later date)

These are the lenses that lead to stress anxiety and depression.

1. The wrong path. That life is not going to plan and we are doing something that we don't want to be doing therefore we are on the wrong path.
2. Missing out. That because we are having this event that we don't want that we are missing out on the good stuff we should be having.
3. Should have could have. I or they should have or could have made a different decision. And if that other decision was made I would have everything I wanted.
4. Self-worth. We are always learning and growing and are part of everyone that we meets lessons as well. We are always 100% @ 100% of the time

  1. Hey Brendon,
    Point number 4 which causes stress, depression and anxiety is the belief that I am worth-less. I am not a valuable contributer to society because I have not achieved what I was supposed to achieve.

    Thanks mate.
