"ストレスに対する最大の武器は、別の考えを選ぶ能力です。"
— William James

Simplified Meaning:
When we feel stressed, it's usually because of the things we are thinking about. If we can change what we focus on in our minds, we can feel less stressed. For example, if you're worried about an upcoming test and you keep thinking, "I'm going to fail," you'll feel more anxious. But if you choose to think, "I'll do my best and prepare as much as I can," you'll likely feel calmer. It's like changing the channel on a TV from a scary movie to a calming show; our mood changes depending on what we're watching. So, by choosing more positive or constructive thoughts, we can handle stress better and feel more peaceful. This idea teaches us that we have power over our thoughts, and by controlling them, we can improve our emotional well-being.
