McGonigal has this really elegant and captivating way of presenting the importance of maintaining a healthy perspective on stress. Recently she presented a similar talk (or the same one? I haven't watched the full TED talk yet.) at the 99u Conference in NYC, in which she made the point: "You can use that stress not as a signal that there’s something wrong with you...but to actually use that same stress as a sign that something you care about is at stake. Take that stress as an opportunity to think about what you care about, to view the situation as an opportunity to learn and grow, to trust you can handle the challenge."
