Aprofessor was giving a lecture to his students on stress management.

He raised a glass of water and asked the audience,“How heavy do you think this glass of water is?”

The students’answers ranged from 20g to 500g.

“It does not matter on the absolute weight.It depends on how long you hold it.If I hold it for a minute,it is OK.If I hold it for an hour，I will have an ache in my right arm.If I hold it for a day,you will have to call an ambulance （n.救護(hù)車）.It is the exact same weight,but the longer I hold it,the heavier it becomes.”

“If we carry our burdens all the time,sooner or later,we will not be able to carry on,the burden becoming increasingly heavier.”

“What you have to do is to put the glass down,rest for a while before holding it up again.”

We have to put down the burden periodically，so that we can be refreshed and are able to carry on.

So before you return home from work tonight,put the burden of work down.Don’t carry it back home.You can pick it up tomorrow.

Whatever burdens you are having now on your shoulders,let it down for moment if you can.

Life is short,enjoy it!

一位教授正在給他的學(xué)生講如何處理壓力。他端著一杯水，然后問學(xué)生：“你們認(rèn)為這杯水有多重？”

學(xué)生們的回答從20克到500克不等。

“它的實(shí)際重量并不重要，這取決于你端它多久。倘若我端它一分鐘，沒問題。如果我端它一個鐘頭，我的右手臂將會感覺疼痛。假如我一整天都端著它，你們就要叫輛救護(hù)車了。我端得越久，它就越重，這才是它準(zhǔn)確的重量?！?/p>

“如果我們總是背負(fù)著擔(dān)子，遲早，我們將無法承受,這個擔(dān)子則會變得愈加沉重?！?/p>

“你需要做的是先放下這杯水，休息一下再端起來?！?/p>

我們必須要不定時地放下杯子，這樣我們才能恢復(fù)力氣繼續(xù)端起它。

因此,今晚下班回家后，放下工作的擔(dān)子。不要將它帶回家。你可以明天再擔(dān)起它。

不管你肩上有什么擔(dān)子，如果可以的話，先放下一會兒。

人生短暫,要懂得珍惜！
