In my work with healthcare executives around the country, one very common experience for each and every one is stress - - a low-grade fever of pressure, hurry, and worry that robs them of their productivity, sleep and health.
I loved one executive's metaphor for his life: "My life is like driving a dynamite truck 100 miles an hour, down a winding mountain road, with bad brakes!"
The solution I offer each one I meet is simply this: take time to stop, sit down, breathe and think.
That's why I offer this link to a blog by a former West Point grad and Microsoft exec who learned how to deal with the overwhelming stress in his life through simple techniques for slowing down and thinking.
