Keeping calm
by Trevor Beauté
Keeping calm is a bliss that most people don't realise in life. When you keep calm in the most dreadful conditions, you open up many solutions. This can help you sort out even the large crises of life.
Staying calm allows you to think and make decisions accordingly. Clarity of mind is very important while you are dealing with problems. If your mind is free and relaxed, your clarity on thoughts shall provide the solution to you.
Staying calm also allows you to discuss things rather than fights. If you will stay calm, you will be able to discuss the problems. Problems are to be dealt with patience. Fighting or unnecessarily arguing will not provide you solution to your problem.
While you are calm and relaxed you are able to know the reason of your problem. You can easily get rid of it only if you think calmly. You have to solve your problem and for that, you need to stay focused on it.
Keeping calm gives you a lot of time to think what to say on matters. You are the one to find a solution to your crises. What to do and how to do is all based on your decisions.
Staying calm during unfavourable issues will reflect your inner character and will provide a positive impression to others. Develop your personality as in you are able to cope up with your problems patiently.
Being calm is being at peace. Your inner soul will feel relaxed and will give you the right advice to solve problems. When you are at peace, the mind becomes active and you are able to think clearly on what to do about an issue.
Nobody wants to fall into a mess. Patience is all you need to save yourself from the issues. Don't create a scene over it rather deal calmly with the problems.
Stress hampers your health. What's the need of stressing out when everything can be dealt smoothly!! Just stay focused and relax. Even, if surrounded with problems, you need not worry. Keep calm and think the ways out to all problems.
Learn to deal with your problems bravely and by keeping calm. Your politeness and calm attitude will rescue you from a number of issues falling your way.
I know that I should of stayed calm and talked to a teacher about the problem my cousin and I were facing.
If I had stayed calm and not used my fist then I would not have been places in detention and taken away from my studies and time with my cousin.
Great leaders always seem to remain calm during situations that make mere mortals fall to pieces. Conventional wisdom says that the ability to remain calm is a character trait that most of us lack.
Neuroscience, however, has recently revealed that remaining calm under pressure is not an inborn trait, but a skill that anybody can learn.
The opposite of remaining calm is the state of "fight or flight," a physiological reaction that occurs in response to a perceived harmful event, attack, or threat to survival.
This reaction starts when two segments of your brain called the amygdalae interpret a situation as a threat. This perception causes your brain to secrete hormones that tell your nervous system to prepare your body to take drastic action. Your breath gets short, your body floods your muscles with blood, your peripheral vision goes away, and so forth.
Since neither fight nor flight are appropriate in business situations, your body never gets a release. Instead, your hyped-up body tells your brain "Yes, this is a real threat!" and you end up with your brain and body in a feedback loop. To put it colloquially, you freak out.
In this state, chances are extremely high that you'll either remain frozen in fear like a deer in headlights like mt cousin did or be driven to release the pressure, you'll say or do something stupid, like I did.
To calm yourself and remain calm, you need to interrupt that feedback loop.
It's now understood that you can reduce the "fight or flight" signals from your brain if you assign names or labels to the emotions that you're experiencing at the time. Reflecting on your feelings and labeling them may assist in calming your brain, allowing you to move out of the fight/flight mode and free up energy allowing to think more clearly about the issue at hand, rather than worrying and acting in an inappropriate manner.
One thing that can help you train your brain to remain calm is to count from 1 to 10 as you inhale, then count from 1 to 10 as you exhale.
These deep breaths bring more oxygen into your lungs and then into your bloodstream, which is the exact opposite effect of the fight or flight reaction. You're telling your body and brain that it's no longer necessary to increase the intensity of your fight-or-flight reaction.
According to some research slow, deep breathing negates the fight-or-flight reaction by calming us down.
At this point, you've interrupted the feedback loop at two levels. In this step, you eliminate the emotional impetus that created the fight-or-flight response.
Go through the list of emotions that you identified and assign them labels that are positive rather than negative.
For example:
•Fear=>Anticipation
•Frustration=>Desire
•Worry=>Concern
•Dread=>Caution
•Flustered=>Excited
•Alarmed=>Curious
•Pressured=>Courted
When you re-label your emotions, you are using controllable parts of your brain to convince your brain that this is not a fight-or-flight situation but instead a stay aware and watchful situation, or even a sit back and enjoy situation.
As you continue to breath slowly and deeply while holding the relabeled emotions in your mind, notice the speed at which your heart is beating. You will find that it gradually returns to a normal pace. You've regained calmness.
While this technique does take a little practice, it's well worth the effort, because this skill will both make you a more effective leader and vastly increase your ability to enjoy the natural state and flow of pressure in your life.
