How You Can Be Calm Even When Things Get Rough
1. Cry if you need to---for a while.
Some people are more emotional than others. But repressing(压制) your emotions doesn’t always help. If you do repress them, _____. You can do it for a while, but it will eventually come back to the surface---and sometimes in an explosive manner. So have a good cry once in a while. Let the emotions out in order to help yourself think more clearly afterwards.
2. Be solution-oriented.
Concentrating on the negatives won’t change anything. Let’s say you just lost your job. ____. So you’ve had your cry or the time to freak out(吓坏), and then you made the decision to put your logical hat on. Now look at the possibilities. Start applying for jobs. Think about a career change or starting your own business. Look at the actions you can take to make your situation better. Then do something.
3. Ask for help.
Unfortunately, ______. It’s not! Where has it ever been written that everyone needs to go through their problems alone? Nowhere! Having other people support you-either emotionally or by actually doing something to help-will make you feel like you have less of a burden on your shoulders. Less burden equals more calm, collected, and lighter feelings.
4. Believe that things will get better.
Hope. ____. If you don’t believe that things will change, then they won’t. I always love to quote Henry Ford when he said, “Whether you think you can-or you think you can’t- either way, you are right.” If you think things will get better, then they eventually will. If you think they won’t, then they won’t. your beliefs shape your experience.
