Is stress a good or bad thing

Is stress a good thing? What is stress? In my opinion, stress is a feeling that's created when we respond to particular events that we meet in our daily life, such as taking an exam, completing a difficult task, and having too many things to do in a limited time, and so on. What's more, stress is part of our daily life and it can't be avoided. Is stress a good thing? My answer for this question is: as we all know that everything has two sides, so does stress. That is to say stress has both good points and bad points.

At the beginning, I want to talk about that the appropriate pressure is a good thing in some

situation. Firstly, it can become motivation and encourage people to work harder than ever before. And sometimes they will become successful under the effect that cause by stress. Secondly, without stress, some people may live an aimless life. As a consequence they won't work hard or study hard. And they may play online games every day and never complete their tasks. Lastly, the appropriate pressure can also make us get more focused on our study and work. And we will be more effective. Therefore, sometimes, the appropriate pressure is a good thing in our life.

Next, on the contrary, excessive stress is certainly harmful, and sometimes may be even harmful to our health. Excessive stress can damage our mental well-being and make us anxious and can't concentrate on our work. It can also do something harmful to our physical in the way of reducing the body's immunity. And if the stress runs for a long time, it may cause some diseases. So

excessive stress is a bad thing in our life and it is necessary to know how to reduce stress in these situations.

In conclusion, the proper pressure is good and excessive stress is bad to us. Therefore, everyone should do best to balance the stress that we in our daily life. As different people may have

different ways to reach the target, we should find our own way to reduce the excessive stress in work and study and live a happy life.
