Hello sir, my problem is mental rather then physical. People around me often say that I take too much stress about studies and that's why I'm not happy with my life but when I see myself it doesn't seem like I'm stressed at all. Maybe a bit tensed about what's going to happen next but nothing more then that. I want to make sure that I live and enjoy the present and forget about the future. Can't you guide me how I can overcome this issue. Don't get me wrong I'm not an unhappy person, I'm just confused and want to focus more on the present and don't want to worry too much about the past or present.

You could be stressed if you dwell too much into the future. If you don't feel under stress, then that is what matters finally. So do not pander to other people's opinions but consider them and dismiss whatever is not true. The stress that you feel is not dependent on the stressor. It is entirely dependent on your perception of stress and your response to it. Life is difficult no doubt, as a general rule, but what we do adds to the stress in our response. We add to the stress of life instead of reducing it or learning to deal with it. Many of us follow a policy of avoidance. We cannot do that all of our lives. So the first thing to do is to change your perception. For example, look at it as a challenge that you would like to meet with a positive outlook. See everything as a gift from God to perform as though you are doing it for Him. God never gives us work to do beyond our capacity. If you look at anything with spiritual eyes, you know that your experiences are ultimately given by God. Secondly, build a good constitution mentally, emotionally and physically to combat stress. Eat healthily, sleep well, and exercise regularly. Talk about your emotions regularly to a good friend every day. Learn stress management techniques. Do Yoga and meditation. Pray every day to God to give you the strength, and offer your tasks as a prayer to Him ? you will give your best and you will feel so satisfied when you do it well.

The important thing is you are enjoying what you are doing. It is a good thing that you are putting effort in your studies without undue stress. You hard work now will pay dividends later. But anything in excess is bad. Putting in hard work during student days is essential. At the same time enjoying life in a healthy way is a basic requirement. Best wishes.
