Yes!  You heard me right.  You will feel happier, calmer, and more in control if you take care of things like paying your bills sooner instead of later.  That nagging thought in the back of your head reminding you to take care of something important just adds to the stress of your day.  Go do it now.  Write the check, fill out the paperwork, make the phone call.  Get it over with and off your stress list.
