stress: Is it real?
I was thinking about my spanish classes in highschool today and remembered something one of my spanish teachers told us. He said stress wasn't a real condition but rather an excuse americans made up so they wouldn't have to work as hard.
This teacher loved asian culture, particularly Japanese culture. He pointed out that say a kid in school has a lot of school work to do but doesn't get it all done, Americans would probably say the kid has too much work and is stressed out where as the japanese mentality would most likely be the kid needs to work harder.
I don't remember exactly what he told us so I could be off about this stuff, but the jist of what he was saying is that stress is an American excuse to be lazier. What do you guys think/know about this?
