Stressful situations prompt unconscious to run or to fight. That may
appear useful when something does danger your life. But that can also may harm
in the workplace. Today we’ll speak about 7 tips that can help you manage
stress without any consequences.
Re-write your patterns of behavior
With time, we all work out certain mental patterns that launch in our
heads under certain circumstances. Such scenarios dictate to us everything
including what to say and how to act in different situations. Change these
behavioral patterns to manage stress in a proper way.
Remember a recent crisis situations you’ve overcome, try to refresh in
mind how you dealt with it and analyze what you’ve missed to solve the issue
more effectively. Write down the script and call it «unsuccessful». After that
create and write down and remember another, more effective and convincing pattern
you will follow next time instead of the «unsuccessful» one.
Find activities that calm you
down
Try to single out your personal methods that can calm you down. Remember
them and use when necessary.
Get to the bottom of the
situation
As a rule, worries are connected with uncertainty. That’s why when
undergoing stress first of all you should allay this uncertainty as better as
you can. Try to understand true state of things without applying any emotional
issues. Probably, then you’ll get
rid of
worries. If
not, then…
Elison Wood Brooks, Harward Business School professor, claims that
stress should be admitted, not kept down. Instead of repeating the mantra
"I am completely self-possessed", it’s better come to terms with
their anxiety, and say to yourself: "Yes, I'm worried." In such case
any trouble can be turned into energy.
Do not take the situation into
your account
Do not take any current stressful situation as a personal, ongoing, or
imminent global problem. Any stress should be seen as an impersonal, unstable
situation that can be solved or escaped. Stop the internal self-talk to stop
blaming yourself in any strange issue.
Look at from the outside
Any stress prompts changes. If you do not expect changes come in a
natural way, you need to look at what is happening from the outside, and it is
better to do it on a regular basis. Even if you’ve never analyzed yourself when
everything is okay, then it definitely worth doing in a troublesome situation. Just
ask yourself:
- What/Who makes me feel stressed and can it appear to be useful for me?
- What feelings will now be more useful for me, and what shall I do to run it?
Think what you want to change to move away from the
stress and act.

your decisions made in a stressful situation
