Thank you for your question, Thuc Anh :) some of the obvious signs for being out of balance is to be easily irritated or to lose our temper with people we know or even strangers. Some express that irritation while others keep it inside until it explodes. Both had negative impacts.
The way to reclaim control is to refocus on what is important in our lives. Start by listing out on a paper every task or relationship that is crying out for your attention right now. Identify what is most important to you. Decide what you will stop doing or let go so you can focus whole heatedly on what is important.

Thanks for adding on, Chris! Focus must lead to action or we continue on in paralysis :)

Hi Thuc Anh,
I like Paul's answer about focus.
Often the feeling of stress comes from a feeling of not being in control of events in your life. The best way to take back control is to take action. Decide what areas in your life you'd like to change, then plan and take action to bring about the change you desire.
You'll find that even if you don't solve the problem quickly, you'll feel better immediately because you will feel more in control.
Another way to reduce stress is to treat each day as a completely separate day. Only focus on what needs to be done on that day, and make sure you take care of those things. If you focus on and take care of each day in the present, the future will take care of itself. You'll feel a lot better too.
Cheers,
Chris-
