What Stress does

I think in some cases stress can help you focus.

In some cases it will improve performance.

In some cases, it will help you win.

In most cases, I think, it ties up your brain into an the un-tie-able knot.

Knots are complicated. They involve many different strands of life. We all want to help dad, but we are all tied to our own dilemmas, and our father - who wants our help, is forever tied to wanting to help us as well. And so the knot just gets tighter and tighter.

How do you untie a knot?
