2. âTo  survive  and  thrive  we  need  to  ďŹnd  ways  to Â
deal  with  pressure  and  uncertainty.â
Â
There  are  any  number  of  scien<ďŹc  studies  out Â
there  that  show  the  deep  connec<on  between Â
staying  calm  and  produc2vity.
3. Workplace  stress  can  be  as  dangerous  to  health  as Â
secondhand  smoke,  according  to  a  large  review  of Â
studies  by  researchers  at  Harvard  Business  School Â
and  Stanford  University.
4. âDrink  your  tea  slowly  and Â
reverently,  as  if  it  is  the  axis  on Â
which  the  world  earth  revolvesâ
slowly,  evenly,  without  rushing Â
toward  the  future.  Live  the  actual Â
moment.â
- Thich Nhat Hanh
5. âDecide  in  advance  on  a  few Â
possibiliAes  that  could  occur  and  how Â
you  will  handle  them.  A  simple Â
formula  such  as,  "If  X  happens,  I'll  do Â
Y,"  can  make  all  the  diďŹerence.â
Plan Ahead
6. âMulA-Ââtasking  typically  leads  to Â
chaos.  I  try  to  choose  one  task,  see Â
it  through,  and  head  on  to  the  next Â
task  that  needs  to  be  done.â
Focus On One Thing
At A Time
7. âTake  a  moment  to  regroup  and Â
prepare  to  methodically  deal  with Â
the  new  issue.â
Be Flexible
9. âWhen  I  feel  like  I  am  geNng Â
bombarded  from  every  angle,  I  take  a Â
short  break  and  then  look  at  the Â
situaAon  with  a  fresh  pair  of  eyes.  Just Â
taking  those  few  seconds  to  count  to  10 Â
gives  me  the  distance  I  need  for  a  new Â
perspecAve.â
Count To 10
10. âIf  you  catch  yourself Â
hypervenAlaAng,  try  inhaling  a Â
deep  breath  through  your  nose, Â
holding  it  a  second,  and Â
releasing  it  from  your  mouth. Â
Repeat  this  exercise  unAl  you Â
feel  calmer.  This  is  a  form  of Â
meditaAon.â
Control Your Breathing
12. âOTen  we  anAcipate  the  worst  possibleâand Â
oTen  ridiculousâconclusion  to  a  situaAon.
Instead  of  using  our  imaginaAon  to  scare Â
yourself,  use  it  to  solve  the  problem.â
Avoid A Doom And Gloom Attitude
13. âThe  more  we  pracAce  looking  on Â
the  bright  side  of  things,  the  less Â
frightening  and  grim  a  stressful Â
situaAon  seems.â
Focus On The Positive
14. âReach  out  to  others  for  help  when Â
needed.  There  is  comfort  in  not  being Â
alone  in  Ames  of  stress.â
Delegate And Seek Support
15. âThe  more  tranquil  a  man Â
becomes,  the  greater  is  his Â
success,  his  inďŹuence,  his  power Â
for  good.  Calmness  of  mind  is Â
one  of  the  beauAful  jewels  of Â
wisdom."
- James Allen
