Ever had a situation go down where you could feel your anger rising? When your frustration level goes through the roof? And you find yourself standing on the edge of having a tantrum – two year old style. Like you’re going to lose it but you know that’s not the right way to deal.
We’ve all been there.
Like the time the you forget to put the dog in the crate before leaving and you come home to chewed up goggles.
Or the time you were cut off on the freeway.
Or the time you disagreed with someone and they pushed all your buttons.
So what’s a girl supposed to do?
3 Steps to Shift Your Energy
Some helpful tips to get you to a more productive energy.
Breathe and Count to 3
-
- first things first, breathe
- this allows you the ability to step back
- prevents you from saying something in the heat of the moment that you might regret later
Observe and Identify
-
- when you’re breathing and counting to 3, observe the situation, as it is
- figure out what it is that is actually triggering you, not just the surface issue
- what do you want to get out of this problem?
Respond instead of Reacting
-
- now that you’re coming from a more positive space, choose how you want to respond.
- will the way you respond give you the outcome you are looking for?
What if you’re still in reaction mode and not ready to respond? Go back to breathing and begin counting again.
There’s no rule that says you have to respond to any situation immediately (unless you’re an EMT and someone is having a heart attack)
When it’s too much and you just can’t deal, finding someone who can talk through your challenges with you can be super helpful. Book a free discovery call and get yourself going down the path you consciously choose.
