Leaders can become addicted to stress.   

Stress triggers the arousal, attention, desire and craving pathways in your central nervous system. When this happens, you experience a natural high. 

As your tolerance for stress builds up, you need more stress to generate that same natural high. 

You might be a "stress junkie" if...

• You wait until the last minute to act
• You like doing things yourself 
• You assume the stress of others 
• You take unnecessary risks 
• You enjoy your coping mechanisms 

A little stress is a good thing. It boosts energy and focus. But too much of a good thing can be a bad thing!
