A SCIENTIFIC ALGORITHM IN 6 STEPS TO DEAL WITH ANXIETY AND SUCCEED IN YOUR CAREER

38% of people in the world find a cause for strong anxiety every day. He is recognized in a large-scale sociological study.

Very often concerns are about work - a difficult task, a competitive market, unpleasant colleagues, a damn chief. Sometimes it is a little thing, but as the anxiety is constant, it increases the level of stress and destroys health. Otherwise, in principle, there are people in the world who always live carelessly, and never has any anxiety.

For dangerous constant anxiety, the real reason is that many do not set an end to their suffering, eliminating the problem that is its source. They are not masochists - few are the ones who love their constant state of self-pity. Most people just don't know how to act.

Scientists at the Australian National University say they have developed an algorithm that allows a person to cope with any anxiety. And to benefit from it by solving the problem of its benefit.

Because the great weakness of carefree people is that they prefer to ignore problems. Thus, they do not live in constant suffering caused by chronic anxiety. But they are not happy, because their problems exist and prevent them from achieving the best.

The algorithm of Australian scientists seems relatively simple because it includes only six consecutive steps. At first, they are really not complicated.

  1. Decide firmly that you will try to do something to eliminate your anxiety instead of sitting and self -pity.
  2. Determine exactly what bothers you. Then clarify what you are afraid of and what is the worst that can follow it.
  3. Look for evidence. Is this anxiety of something that happened before? Do you have reasons to think it's real? Write down everything that comes to response to these questions. Then think if there is evidence of the opposite - that your fears will not come true.
  4. Determine the actions you can take to solve the problem. Write down everything that comes to your mind as an opportunity.
  5. Record all the advantages and disadvantages of these actions. This will help you to clarify which of them you can do.
  6. Choose one of these actions for a start and try.

The most difficult in the algorithm is step 5 - it includes the so -called. SWOT analysis, popular technique for strategic business management. The abbreviation comes from the English words Strengths - strengths, pluses, Weaknesses - disadvantages, Opportunities - opportunities, Threats - dangers. When you look at each of the possible actions, you will decide which to choose in step 6.

It will be easier for you if you divide one sheet vertically into two for the analysis of each possible action. In one column one below the other, record the pros and capabilities, and against the other - the disadvantages and dangers.

If you are thinking calmly from 1 to 6, you will probably deal with the problem that causes you anxiety. This will always encourage you to use this algorithm.

After the first success, be sure to write down did you help yourself and how. This way you will gain experience and gradually get used to automatically thinking how to eliminate your worries.

If you fail the first time, do not be discouraged. Try again. There is no worse than constant anxiety. It can only get better by learning to deal with it, using it for your development.
