Managing the brink of one’s patience is a powerful skill to master. Business-owning, relationship management and other worthwhile pursuits require stellar composure and focus. A short fuse in cases of hardship is not advised. Ultimately, the battle of willpower determines whether you can remain calm through the storm of progress.
Many opportunities and situations surround a business owner. One message can spark a series of memories, each with positive or negative associations. An unexpected email can spark or derail motivation in a high strung person. Hence, the ability to remain grounded through both the highs and lows of your journey is pivotal. Consistently working to remain diligent and focused, humble and happy, devoted yet relaxed is the battle numerous business owners face.
Five strategies to stay centered and keep all situations in perspective are:
1. Understand that certain individuals would love to be in your situation. Regardless of your current frustration level, there are people who would trade places with you in a minute. This perspective shift re-aligns you with the soothing nature of calm.
2. Take a brief intermission. Walk away from the situation before you act out. Your true self would handle this tough incidence with brilliance. Channel him or her back to the battle.
3. Drink water. Dehydration may be a cause of your anger. Remember to fuel your body with the substance that makes up about 60% of it—water.
4. Remember to act humbly and avoid condescension. If you are condescending, you are just are a con who is descending. Be humble as per the examples set by major figures of religions and belief systems.
5. Offer up this struggle. Have the mindset that these incidents happen for a reason designed to aid you. Envision how this will benefit you, thereby shifting your focus. Furthermore, dedicate this battle to a person or organization that you value, and win it for them.
