What would we do without Statistics Canada? They just completed a study into what is stressing Canadians. 10,151 people participated in this study for six years and the results are mind blowing.
The common stressors are:
- doing too many things at once
- not having enough money
- marital problems
- concerns about children
Six years and how many dollars to learn that time pressure is the most common cause of stress amongst Canadians. I would have told Statistics Canada that in 30 seconds for $5 even. Hell, I'd have done it for a loonie.
I never have enough time to do everything I need to do. There's work, a home and car to maintain, a toddler to raise and several hours of sports and "The Simpsons" on the television. It ain't easy finding time, but somehow I manage.
