Im just thinking out loud here and probably obvious that I am under a lot of stress and participating in discussions is my way of relieving it or being more productive rather than lying in bed doing nothing=) Im just wondering, is there a job that is stress free? Maybe if you have a business and you already earned a lot of profit from it, then maybe you can saY that the stress level is low but still there right? Or maybe a job that you love doing not because you needed to, but because its what you have been dreaming of to do in your entire life.
Please share some of your secrets how can I make my job stress free, or at least lower down my stress level..=)

Oh, none that I know of. I had 3 different jobs for the past 8 years and I could not remember any of them that did not cause me stress. Now that I have already started my own business, the stress level is even higher.
For the stress level to be more bearable, we need to have passion in whatever we are doing and to do our best in giving the highest quality possible to our products/ output. Also, we should know when to take a break, breath some fresh air and appreciate other things/people around us.

I agree that sometimes we really have to do things we do not like. However, we should not stop from believing that we could achieve our dreams. I hope that you will continue to believe, think and act towards the achievement of your dream.

I often read that to avoid stress in work, one must have passion. The only reason why we feel so trap with the job we are doing because we are not enjoying doing it. If we don't enjoy it, chances are we don't have the passion. Having your own business and plenty of money doesn't mean that life is stress free. Our passion is the most important thing to make our life enjoyable. Start finding what you truly love to do so that you will no longer be so stressful.

I think if you do even the thing you love stress will peak in. You can do something repetively and not get stressed.

I don't think there's a stress free job in this world. Even if you earn a lot of money, there will always be stressful situations. It all depends on how you handle it. A positive mindset is a good way to combat stress. Don't fight the things you cannot control. If you have to do something, just do it and try not to get upset over it or dwell on negativity. That's how I deal with my stress. I also run, do yoga and other exercise.

Its impossible to look for a stress free job nowadays. especially if we are trying to meet both ends.
