2 Selye János ( ) In 1936, when this definition was formulated, we knew of only three objective indicators that could be recognized no matter how stress was produced. these indicators were: - the mobilization of the anterior pituitary-adrenal axis, - the readily observable involution of the thymico-lymphatic system - and the appearance of peptic ulcers. doctor honoris causa at 43 universities 10x nominations for Nobel Prize

31 Find your own natural stress level and run toward what you accept as your own goal. Granted, this is difficult and takes much time, but too many people suffer all their lives because they are too conservative to risk a radical change and break with tradition.
