I hate to read lists of negative things to avoid. I'll try to invert each of the points:

How to Avoid Stress

* Begin by setting reasonable standards for yourself

* Compare yourself with role models who you could someday be like

* Take all criticism with a grain of salt and try not to take it personally

* Allow yourself to make mistakes and to have imperfections

* View your work as a means to an end

* Pay attention to the outcome and the process

* Attribute the success or failure of every endeavor to the effort expended

* Acknowledge factors beyond your control but do not fixate on them

* Learn to meditate and relax; do it often

* Develop your sense of humor

* Listen to music for please

* If you have a physical problem, find the root cause of the problem and pursue a lasting solution

* Exercise often; eat healthy on a good schedule

* Avoid alcohol, tobacco, caffeine, and other drugs and stimulants

* Fasten your seatbelt, drive slowly, and reduce your time spent in the car

* Take on what you can handle, learn to say no

* Learn to prioritize everything and work on the important things

* Stay organized

* Participate in your support networks

* Ask for help

* Take responsibility for your behavior

* Develop and maintain friendships with others

* Recover from injury, don't wallow in victimization

* When in doubt, avoid hastily assigning blame
