Last quarter stressed and problems

Last quarter I had an instructor ask the class how do you get thru stresses and problems when they arrive? My initial response was to just be calm and try to avoid said problems. I also said that once they do arrive it is best to just remain calm and handle one thing at a time and you will get there. Well as life goes now is my time of stresses and problems catching up. As I say that I still don't even like calling them that. While they are stresses they are still not problems. I feel like I have 800 things going on right now that I could put my attention to. While I am trying to chisel away at them all I have found that I still sit down and handle one thing at a time most efficiently. In a matter of 2 hours I have accomplished almost 4 assignments, and processed some photos by doing it this way. It compelled me enough to write about it!
