Eustress & Distress...

Stress can be good (eustress) or bad (distress) and your perceptual system plays a vital role in coping and determining if the stress motivates or overwhelm you. We need some amount of eustress to motivate and push us to develop ourselves, our skills and even our relationships. But when its too much, we may no longer able to cope with the overload. It then become distress and we need to rest to review and evaluate how to proceed / change / drop it entirely. Needless to say, having a good support such as your family or friends or a career coach (for your career transition) is vital to add to your resources and coping.

One news caught my eye today...

That little bright blue app with a logo "C" called canva, available both phones like andriod as well as online at canva.com (not to be confused with another learning system "canvas") had successfully raised $85 millions which value the firm at $3.2billion!

This reminds me of how fortune is made n how it has changed (increased) since then.

Century ago - through "landlord" (read Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations n u get e argument between landlords vs producers / more like miners).

Decades ago - through listing as a stock, first stocks then e derivatives like Options, Credit Swaps n REITs n more...
- through book n IP creations (think Harry Potter, singers, IP holders of Star Wars toys...)

N now - through creation of software /websites / apps (silicon valley, fintech, AI, RPA)

So what values are you creating today? 💭
