I was just sorting through my email and found this quote that I'd saved from last year.
"Most of the stress that people feel doesn't come from having too much to do -- it comes from not keeping agreements they've made with themselves."
-David Allen, David Allen and Co.
I don't know who David Allen is but there's an article on Fast Company that's related to the quote. The picture is from the BBC's page on how to deal with stress.
David Allen is the author of Getting Things Done (GTD) - a very attractive and successful (for some) personal information and time management approach. Personally, I still haven't got round to reading the book having purchased it at Easter - but of course that says a lot more about me than it does about the book.
