In his words -

"Stress is mainly the product of our attitudes. Stress is un-avoidable; so stress is not the problem: that is the stuff of life.

"Stress relief and stress management techniques can be learnt, but they are applied by the person inside us. That is our attitude. So, ultimately, I think that if we are bitten by the bug of stress and anxiety, then primarily, it is that person inside us that is screaming for some attention - change it! Change him (or her)!! That is the real challenge.

"If stress has to be reduced, or to put it more realistically, if it has to be managed, then one should be pepared to work on self, and be ready for some radical changes - and that is the REAL CHALLENGE!"
