Manage Yourself Well
When stressed, you may be aware that you’re edgy, argumentative, confrontational, or reactive. You
may have feelings of overload, diminished control, generalized anxiety, or
tension. You may
have racing thoughts, a mild sense of panic, fear of impending disaster, or a sense
of being trapped.
When effectively managing stress, you remain calm and pragmatic in a conflict or crisis. Your stability influences others toward optimum functioning. You enjoy an organized life of health, creativity, and contentment.
To manage and alleviate an irritation, first identify the source of it. The source may not immediately be obvious. Next, recognize and understand your own responses to it. You may be experiencing frustration; mild social anxiety; inability to describe your concerns; sensitivity to criticism; difficulty in managing anger, or symptoms of depression.
I hope these ideas enhance your health, self-awareness, and quality of life.
