Essential Lifestyle Tip #12

Stress. It’s the modern curse. However, you should never tell anyone you’re stressed, because that makes you an instant stress charlatan. If you’ve got time to tell someone how incredibly stressed you are - “Oh God, I’m so stressed! Stand there for five minutes whilst I tell you in tedious detail how stressed I am!” - then you’re obviously doing it for dramatic effect. Like the boy who cried wolf, when your turn comes to be genuinely stressed, no one will believe you - not even if you present them with a clump of your hair freshly torn from your scalp and wrapped tightly inside your clenched fist.
