Different types of stress

In the past I've been stressed out about running out of money for my businesses and having to either borrow money or get a job. Now, a few weeks after deciding I was going to take a few extra consulting projects each month to fund my ventures, I am stressed out because I have to meet the expectations of several clients at once while still finding time for my businesses. SEO-Playbook is giving me more business quicker than I thought it would, and at this point I'm backed up with work. The financial stress has been replaced with a different stress.

I find it ironic because people (myself included) sometimes think "my stress will go away when X happens," but then when X happens you get the same exact thought about Y...and then Z..and the process can be endless. You can literally stress yourself out every day for the rest of your life. That's no fun! I don't want to live like that.

In my case, I think that overall I enjoy the stress and the pressure. Without it life would just be blah. If I am living life to the fullest than there will always be stress associated with the chances I take and the situations I put myself in. So from now on I'm going to try to worry less and just enjoy the fact that I get to do the cool stuff that I do for a living.
