Stress

It is a six-letter word that many of us dread. Whether it is a tense interaction with a boss or pressure from friends and family, we all face stressful situations from time to time.

For some of us, these events happen sporadically. For others, daily stress is a regular part of life.

There’s a good chance we can all identify negative stress, but did you know that stress can also be positive?

Good stress, called eustress, can actually be beneficial to you. Unlike bad stress, or distress, good stress can help with motivation, focus, energy, and performance. For some people, it can also feel exciting.

On the other hand, bad stress typically causes anxiety, concern, and a decrease in performance. It also feels uncomfortable, and it can lead to more serious issues if not addressed.

How do you assess your situation? Is the glass half full or half empty?

Did you even recognise the drinking glasses?

Methodological foundations of evaluation

Methodological foundations of evaluationEvaluating means linking accessible information about an issue with personal appreciation(s) to form a judgement about the issue.

Thus, evaluation is not free of subjective value attitudes, but it is not subject to complete arbitrariness, since it is equally dependent on factual information.
