Distract Yourself from Stress
It's getting close to Easter and a four-day week isn't my idea of a relaxing, calming, helpful time frame in a very busy Internet business! So as I found myself faced with many requests for Meniere's information, another batch from other sources, I moved faster and faster until I caught myself making some silly mistakes.
So I stepped back and took a deep breath, did my Power Pause exercise, and took stock of my workload. Yes, it's too much for one person to deal with, but I decided that anyone, who had taken the time and energy to write, deserved a better response than I was giving in such a hurry. (I didn't mention the non-Internet things, which were also requiring my attention.)
My point? When I get to a stage where I need to break my negative pattern, I am prepared with my Power Pause. It helps me release the stress and deal with the problem facing me. Everyone should be PREPARED with something similar that distracts your attention, shifts the focus to something more empowering, and spend a few minutes or even seconds in a more relaxed and positive mood. There are many things you could use, but the point is that if you don't want to build up your blood pressure to dangerous levels and frequencies, you NEED to distract yourself. You need to have something ready, as you don't know when you might need it. So find your quiet spot in your imagination, feel yourself relaxing, and see yourself in having achieved some wonderful goal! Enjoy the trip!
