I tend to stress easily. It’s been important for me to learn that about myself as I’ve gotten older. I used to assume that people who weren’t stressed didn’t have as many demands as I did, or that it was completely normal and expected for someone with a similar workload to mine to function with high levels of stress at all times. I now realize that whether or not my personal perceptions of stress are correct, prevention and coping, what the authors refer to as primary and secondary interventions, respectively, are both important in order for me to be able to function well at work and at home (Baldwin, Bommer, and Rubin, 2013).

The most effective primary intervention for me has been to enhance control and predictability. I’m a planner by nature, so any time I’m faced with a large project or daunting task my first course of action is to plan out how I’ll approach and accomplish the work necessary to the completion of the task. I’ve also become less afraid to ask for help over time, so when I’m working on something that I don’t have all the needed expertise to accomplish I know who to go to for instrumental and informational support and how to ask for that support.

My ability to plan that way also plays into my primary coping mechanisms, since it gives me a sense of control over the stressful situation. I’ve also learned to remind myself of Romans 8:28 in moments of high stress: “For we know that in all things, God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” The fact that scripture says all things, not just “the things that make sense or are good” is a reminder that even if my current situation it’s great, it’s part of the Lord’s plan and he’s got a reason for it.
