I've done some writing on "The Myth of the Stressful Environment," which can be accessed here: http://EzineArticles.com/?The-Myth-of-the-Stressful-Environment&id=5666183. Many people talk about stress as if it is something that is "happening to them," or of which they are a passive recipient/victim. You correctly point out that "stressors" are in the eye of the beholder. I'm looking forward to reading your book.

Stress is everywhere, and it seems so commonplace. Yet, if I stop and really think about it, different individuals have different ways of coping with these stress. There's drinking, smoking, working out, eating, and so many other things.... Stress is definitely not about working too much, but it seems to be more a matter of how we cope with things that are constantly being thrown in our face.... But to be honest, I truly enjoy what I"m doing right now, what I'm studying, and where I am in my life..but that doesn't mean that I don't get stressed. I get stressed almost every day, due to various obligations... Sure, I'll probably be more stressed if I was doing something I didn't want to do, but honestly, everyone has stress. Its all a matter of how we handle our stress and how we cope with it.... Its also a matter of how well we keep it under control. We can choose to "look stressed" by going to work half-dressed with unbrushed hair, or we can choose to "look presentable" by taking some time to do so. And of course, outsiders will think that the person that "looks presentable" has less stress, but its all so subjective. Interesting!

Studies have found that feeling that you're not in control of your work is much more stressful than workload or deadlines. According to AS level psychology, anyway :) Apparently, the key workplace stressor is control (or lack thereof).
