Another awesome one from Quora... Q: How do people who are good at handling stress appear/behave differently from people who arent? A: One can propose that stress is the gap between how things are and how one thinks things should be. People who appear to be good at handling stress are actually good at keeping this gap tiny, and therefore, they dont HAVE stress. They accept that things are the way they are, and deal with reality, rather than their ideas about how reality should be different from the way it is. As Barry Hampe points out, people who can keep this gap small are generally calmer and more relaxed than those who have huge gaps between reality and their ideas about same. But the actual behavior difference is in gap sizing, not in handling stress. -Karen Tiede
