Be Cool!

Have you ever lost your temper ? Every looses their cool at least once. Some of us more often than than others. It does not have to be that way.



Ways to be cool:

1. Look before you leap

If you think about the negative effects of loosing your cool, then you may prefer the higher road.

2. Avoid toxic people

There are some people that were put on this earth to annoy us. First,identify them and know how to avoid them. For example ,at work,say something like I would love to talk, but I have to get something out by the ending of the day. In most cases, you always have to get something out all the time everyday.

3. Deal with toxic people

This may seem like conflicting advice but sometime we get angry at ourselves if we don't put our foots down. Just be nice and respectful while doing so. Being cool requires that we don't hurt others feeling no matter how toxic they are.

4. Vent outside the tent

Loosing your cool should be done outside. We are all human ,and we have to vent but just take it outside. Go for a walk. As cool as Obama is,he still gets angry but,he takes it outside. He plays basketball with his staff to vent.

5. Be patient

Sometimes thing are not the way they seem. We sometimes jump to false conclusions that cause us to get fired up.Be cool and think good of people and situations. Be patient and in time the truth will be revealed. Remember what is fast and simple is not always best. And jumping to false conclusion is fast and simple. Practicing patience and goodwill is cool.



Fun Ways To Relieve Stress

Are you stressed out ? Being stressed is part of life. How we handle it makes the difference. Stress leads to high blood pressure and a slew of other health risks. I guess the old saying that stress kills is true. It does not have to be that way. Life is too priceless and we should treat it as such by not being stressed all time.

Fun Ways To Relieve Stress:

1. Go for a walk
Getting away (if possible) from the environment that stresses you helps. If you know that someone or something at work (any setting) stresses you then take a break from it.

2. Play a game

Research proven that playing games release stress. I recently read a study showed that playing Pacman help relief trauma.

3. Smile

Don't let stress get you down. Think of a happy moment in your life and smile when faced with stress.

4. Fast Forward

Will the situation causing your stress matter in three years? Most likely NOT. Forgetaboutit! The next time you are tempted to raise your blood pressure just fast forwards and don't forget to smile.

5. Be human

Everyone makes mistakes. To err is human. Learn from your mistakes,don't repeat them and move on. Don't let them stress you out. Can you imagine how boring life would be if we were all perfect. We would never learn anything new if we did not step out of our comfort zone.Remember, Thomas Edison failed up to 10,000 times before he got the light bulb correct. Stop worrying so much and keep doing the remarkable work you do.

STOP STRESSING AND START LIVING!
