Stress in the Corporate World.

                      Every individual handles stress in different ways. Stress related problems are higher in the corporate world than in other fields of work. A corporation is a company consisting of people authorized to act as one. Many people, many minds trying to act as one. So you can imagine the scenario.

One of the main reasons that stress is a rising trend in the corporate world is “COMPETITION” and “MONEY”. With population growing so fast in corporate industries, how can you not expect stress at your work place? Every man today wants a lavish lifestyle and they work to achieve what they want. They work so much that they forget the purpose of life, but that’s a topic for another day.  What they don’t realize is that this stress is eating them alive and it is not only affecting them but is also affecting their work and family.

                                                      Let’s inform you a little about stress related diseases:

             Stress not only makes you awfully emotional but also is a big threat to your body. It increases the risk of conditions like obesity, heart disease, diabetes, depression, gastrointestinal problems, asthma etc. These are some commonest conditions what we see in corporate world.
