So there is a new survey conducted online by Talker Research, 2,000 Americans, says that 42% of us feel a little stressed every day. And 25% of those

under the age of 30 say they are burnt out. Wow. Now, I submit to you that, New York City and the downstate area is the stress capital of the world. So I saw it with my father. He had to get up 6.30 every morning, commute to the city, got home 6.30 at night, didn't particularly like his job, and it just wore him out, so much so that it affected his health. And he had to retire on disability at 55. And just the commute into New York City, unless you are a Zen person, puts an enormous amount of stress on people because you have to deal with so many other people. And you have to deal with subways and trains and buses and traffic? Traffic is crazy. Now, I'm not a patient man. So when I'm in traffic, that's stressful.

A lot of people, they don't mind it. They have their earbuds in or they're doing something and, oh, you know, and I give them credit because I'm too hyper. And I see this. I can remember when I was commuting in every day to Fox News, it drove me nuts. In and out of that. place with the traffic. Oh, my God. Now I don't have to commute and make my life a lot better. That's for sure. So we in America, we in New York City, because there's eight and a half million people here, that's too many. We're jammed in. We got to deal with a lot more stress than you would if you were a cowboy out in Wyoming. Or, you know, a mellow person in Santa Fe, New Mexico, although that didn't do Gene Hackman a lot of good. So you know what I'm talking about.

This is the stress capital of the world right here. And that can really hurt you physically. So you got to get stress busters, number one, and number two, coping mechanisms. So one of the things that I've done is when I have to go into the city, I have to go into the city, I take the train. I never used to do that because a lot of people know me and I'm, I don't mind posing for the pictures or chatting people, you know, but sometimes I'm working and it gets a little and I, when I get driven in, I can work in a car and all that. But I take the train in now. The L-I-R-R has been pretty good. About a half an hour from where I live, I'm in, and I need the exercise. So I just go up and walk if I can to my destination because, you know, I just. I need to get out there and move it. That has not been stressful. I never take the subway because I'm too well known and it's too crowded and I'm not going to do it.

I'm not afraid of the thugs, but my question is, do I need this? And the answer is no. So I'll walk or take a cap. That's how. Stress busters. So if you have something to look forward. to at the end of the day, that is a buster. So it could be something as simple as a nice dessert. I don't eat a lot of sugar, but I'll say, yeah, maybe I'll get a Carvel hot fud Sunday.

Maybe I do that once a month. But I look forward to me. That's the best hot foot Sunday in the world. I used to work at Carvel. It was my first job. And if there's a game on I want to watch or a movie, but if you got something to look forward to, that busts the stress down. And then there's physical activity. So I can't go to the gym for, I don't have time, but I do my own regiment. I can't say that I look forward to that. I do the power walk and I move it. And it's not fun, but I know I have to do it.

But it does bust the stress. You get out to fresh air, you move it, and you're accomplishing something. accomplishing something. It's all mental now. Gotta control the stress. If you don't control the stress, it is going to harm you physically. Something will go wrong in your body. Okay, so think about it.
