Stress : Types of Stress

There are four types of Stress that can impact our lives. Not all of them are bad. In fact, some stress is good for us. Good stress gets us out of bed in the morning and motivates us to excel.



Eustress

Eustress is a good type of stress. This is what you feel when you are watching a suspenseful movie, riding a rollercoaster or about to finish running a marathon. Eustress helps motivate us to finish projects that we are excited about and contributes positively to a creative mindset.



Distress

Distress refers to frustrations, unresolved anger, or fear. It causes anxiety and mental suffering. This is a bad stress and does a great job at blocking creativity.



Under-stress

Under-stress is the lack of any stress, and is similar to boredom and hopelessness. An unchallenging job can lead to under-stress. If people are not challenged then they are not motivated to be creative.



Over-stress

Over-stress is what you feel when you have pushed yourself too hard, are late for an important meeting, or have a big deadline that is looming. People who are in this condition do not have the time to think creatively. They are only worried about dealing with the issues immediately at hand and cannot step back to look at the big picture.

Memory : Eyewitness Memory

Eyewitnesses have notoriously bad memories. Many studies have been conducted where a group of people watch a simulated crime and are then asked to describe the details of the event. It is very rare for the criminal to be described accurately. Perhaps this is because people always have a difficult time describing a face, even if it is right in front of them. Faces do not have features that can be easily articulated with vocabulary that we posses. How would you describe your own nose to someone over the phone?



Police use artists and kits full of different face parts to help witnesses piece together a face. Even with this help, an accurate portrayal of the suspect is rarely achieved. In fact, two eyewitnesses to the same crime often produce wildly different portraits. Perhaps this is because memory can get distorted under stress, or maybe it is because when people are trying hard to remember something, they will sometimes fabricate a false memory to satisfy themselves and their questioner.

Vocabulary : Word of the Day : Peccadillo

pec-ca-dil-lo



noun :: A slight offense.



"Using the incorrect fork at the formal dinner was a peccadillo that Jon could easily recover from."

Cats are always doing some of the weirdest and funniest things you could ever imagine. As a matter of fact, I have my cat laying down right beside of me while I type out this latest animal optical illusion post for you. You see, the optical illusion I’m bringing you today actually involves a cute cat. At first, it just looks like this man has a pretty big beard, but upon closer inspection, it looks like his cat is helping him pull off a pretty cute and pretty funny optical illusion. Are you ready to see exactly what I’m talking about? If so, you can scroll down right now. :)

After seeing the image above I bet you busted out into laughter. This reminds me of my cat, because he’s so laid back that you could pick him up like this and he wouldn’t even mind it a single bit. Either way, I hope you liked this post and it brightened up your day. If you did like it, you should rate this post by clicking on one of the stars below it.
