There are people who seem unflappable in chaotic and high-pressure moments: the unrealistic deadline, the hairpin coastal drive, the medical emergency. And then there are the rest of us. From an article by Elizabeth Millard in Experience Life magazine.
One of our dear friends, the pastor who married us, is having open heart surgery today. This is an intense scenario that could cause the calmest among us to freak out and motivated me to consider how we can best handle pressure situations.
According to positive-psychology researcher Michelle Gielan, author of Broadcasting Happiness: The Science of Igniting and Sustaining Positive Change, “Having certain strategies prepared in advance, when you’re not in a pressure situation, can be very helpful when those moments arrive.” In other words, she is suggesting we imagine easily merging into traffic, talking calmly with the boss, or learn all we can about a medical procedure to help calm our fears. I’m sure my friend found solace this morning in quiet prayer as well.
Affirmation: I can prepare for high-pressure moments.
Coaching questions: What causes you the greatest anxiety? What will you do to become more prepared?
😌. Just Read your blog.

Your most competent and knowledgeable person may have some hesitation when it will come to grow to be.
It’s also a good idea to include some famous quotes by notable speakers in prior. http://amussiluqyfi.mihanblog.com/post/108
