| Summary: | Stress is an integral part of human life where people live with it, deal with it and above all worry about it. Each person faces stressful situations from time to time and it is important to accept the fact that stress can never be completely eliminated. In fact, stress can be a silent killer to a person who is unable to handle the stress that can lead to many negative impacts in people's life. The word stress is often used to describe almost everything that seems to become too much and overload and wonder whether the person really can cope with the pressures placed upon them. According to McShane, Olekalns and Travaglone (2013), "stress is a physiological and psychological condition that prepares us to adapt to hostile or noxious environmental conditions". Besides that, McShane et al., (2013) also stated that "stress is an adaptive response to a situation that is perceived as challenging to a person's wellbeing" Meanwhile, from the view of Carr, Kelley, Keaton and Albrecht (2011), "stress is what sharpens your concentration while playing a game or keeps you on your toes during a work presentation". |
