Environment doesn't impose stress on us. Our reaction to it does. Learn to control that response, can use it to your advantage when you choose to let it in.
I’m pretty certain there are physiological limits that you can’t just muscle through and stress _can_ be an indicator that you’re reaching said limits.
Yeah, didn't mean it as just need to "muscle through". Just sharing the framing that has helped me.
There are certainly some environments that do. The data is clear that things like loud traffic noise increases stress.
That’s all well and good, but I kind of live for things outside of my career (even though I have a good one).
