情緒管理方法壓力

1、運(yùn)智卓選智umS TEX3管理方如何緩解心理壓力我們?yōu)槭裁磿?huì)覺得壓力重重我認(rèn)為我們當(dāng)中的許多人都傾向于對(duì)生活中各種各樣的事情說是，也許是因?yàn)槲覀兲屏级x擇妥協(xié)，又也許是因?yàn)槲覀儗?duì)自己的承受能力太樂觀， 可能因?yàn)?我們不想承認(rèn)自己看上去很糟糕，又可能是因?yàn)椴幌胍驗(yàn)樽约旱木芙^而錯(cuò)失良 機(jī)。這么說來只要我們對(duì)沒有把握的事情說 不”就可以了，當(dāng)然，像我剛才說的那樣， 這只是一種傾向，我們傾向于對(duì)力不從心的事情也說 是“。所以我們就會(huì)開始變 得不知所措、壓力重重和疲憊不堪。如你所知，簡化就是我哲學(xué)理念的關(guān)鍵。如果事情變得復(fù)雜起來，我就會(huì)建議你 把它簡化。不要嘗試再多做什么，而是少做。壓力和超負(fù)荷還來的

2、后果我們都知道太大的壓力對(duì)我們不利。 當(dāng)然，你不能完全避開壓力的存在并且沒有 了壓力我們也會(huì)停止進(jìn)步。但是壓力太大呢？那就會(huì)導(dǎo)致許多問題。首先是許多健康問題，比如：頭痛，肩頸、背部肌肉疼痛.這些會(huì)讓你過早衰老， 還會(huì)導(dǎo)致暴飲暴食、潰瘍、消化不良、高血壓、心臟病等，這些都令人擔(dān)憂。不僅如此，過重的負(fù)擔(dān)也會(huì)導(dǎo)致辦事效率下降。承擔(dān)得太多意味著我們不能像預(yù) 期的那樣把工作做好，我們經(jīng)常會(huì)不斷的從一個(gè)任務(wù)跳到另一個(gè)任務(wù)，所以我們 通常會(huì)在這些事情上花更多的時(shí)間而沒法完成它們。 或者我們會(huì)爭分奪秒的完成 一些任務(wù)而犧牲了它們的質(zhì)量。我主張的是做得更少可以讓你變得更有效率，因而也更加高產(chǎn)。至少這對(duì)我是有 效

3、的。我傾向于把事情從我的計(jì)劃表中剔除出去，當(dāng)我覺得壓力重重時(shí)我就會(huì)刪減掉一些計(jì)劃。你知道結(jié)果怎么樣嗎？我覺得壓力少多了， 并且我的確完成了那 些任務(wù)一一從我的電子書到博客從我每天的工作到要完成的新任務(wù) .我能在有 限的時(shí)間內(nèi)很出色的完成兩到三個(gè)需要完成的任務(wù)。應(yīng)對(duì)壓力就像我上面所說的，有許多方式可以應(yīng)對(duì)壓力。但每一種方式并不是相同的。消極應(yīng)對(duì)包括一些用來應(yīng)對(duì)壓力和高負(fù)荷的更加常用的方法比如暴飲暴食、 過度吸煙喝酒 以及購物。我們都嘗試過，所以我不打算在這里進(jìn)行批判，但我認(rèn)為這些都是消 極的應(yīng)對(duì)方式。同樣的，上面四種方法（其實(shí)還有更多）我都使用過，所以我知 道這些方法會(huì)給人們帶來壓力確實(shí)減小了的

4、錯(cuò)覺，實(shí)際上他們卻只能給人們帶來 更多的壓力。飲食，吸煙和飲酒，如果這些過量則是不健康的 當(dāng)你做出一些不 健康的行為時(shí)實(shí)際上是給你的身體施壓。消費(fèi)會(huì)對(duì)你產(chǎn)生經(jīng)濟(jì)上的影響（同樣， 如果過度）導(dǎo)致經(jīng)濟(jì)壓力。盡管這些能讓你暫時(shí)緩解壓力，但長久來看是有壞處 的。積極應(yīng)對(duì)以下這些是我總是給人們推薦的 一一鍛煉、各種放松技巧、瑜伽或冥想、洗個(gè)熱 水澡。這些都能幫助緩解壓力，建議你使用。我曾用跑步取代了吸煙，而且這是 我用過的最好的方法了。減少壓力當(dāng)然比積極應(yīng)對(duì)壓力更好的辦法就是從根源上減少壓力了。是什么讓你壓力倍 增？看看你能否減小壓力的來源。在這篇文章中我們假設(shè)你的壓力來自于工作， 不論是何種形式的工作

5、，讓我們來看看如何通過控制你壓力根源來削減你的工作 負(fù)擔(dān)。怎樣減負(fù)問題是大多數(shù)被工作弄得疲憊不堪的人仍然覺得他們不能削減工作負(fù)擔(dān)。他們認(rèn)為自己需要更加努力去完成那些該做的事情。 他們還認(rèn)為花點(diǎn)時(shí)間休息或者削減 工作量是想都不用想的。如果這是你的想法，那你很有可能就是那個(gè)最需要減負(fù)的人。 當(dāng)然，我并不是在 批判你，不過你是該考慮采取行動(dòng)了。那么在你覺得你不能辦到時(shí)該怎么做呢？基于我的經(jīng)驗(yàn)，可以嘗試以下的方法：1、回顧為了給減負(fù)做出一些必要的安排，你需要一些時(shí)間去整理思緒。停下你手頭的任 何事情（如果不能，你可以在一天的某個(gè)時(shí)候安排 30分鐘出來）并且把所做過 的每一件事情整理清楚。如果有必要可以

6、去散散步呼吸一點(diǎn)新鮮空氣讓你的大腦 清醒一下。2、列出清單把你所有的任務(wù)和項(xiàng)目寫在一張清單上 （如果愿意也可以分別列舉），把所有的 事情都記錄在上面，不論個(gè)人私事還是社會(huì)責(zé)任，每一件事都要寫在清單上。為 了做出正確的安排，你必須對(duì)要做的事情一目了然。3、設(shè)定目標(biāo)給自己束縛看上去是不可能的，不過一旦這么做了你就必須強(qiáng)迫自己去做那些最 必要的事情。事實(shí)上這樣的約束并不是一沉不變的， 你可以根據(jù)根據(jù)接下來的工 作進(jìn)行調(diào)整。我建議你一天選擇三個(gè)任務(wù)來完成，且最多完成三個(gè)。4、排列順序一旦你給自己提出了目標(biāo)，你可以觀察一下長長的任務(wù)表然后選擇出那些必須格 外用心完成的任務(wù)。哪些任務(wù)是最必要的？并不是那些

7、最緊急的， 而是哪些能夠 給你帶來長遠(yuǎn)利益的。哪些任務(wù)是最見成效的？通常是那些在你頭腦中覺得很緊 急的任務(wù)。如果你忽略它們，它們通常就不見得那么緊急了（并不是每一次）。5、刪減在這些任務(wù)中是不是有些不那么重要而可以刪減掉？是不是有些可以推遲去 做？不是是有些可以委托他人或者順其自然的？其實(shí)你不必完成清單上所有事 情的一一果斷的將它們刪掉吧。6、重議承諾當(dāng)你決定好哪些事不做事你不能就直接回避掉或者委托別人，你必須重新安排它們。找到那些你曾經(jīng)給出過承諾的人，不論他們是你的上司、客戶、團(tuán)隊(duì)、配偶 或者朋友，真誠地告訴他們你的確無法馬上完成手頭上的工作，并且請(qǐng)求推遲。 他們能否等上一星期？ 一個(gè)月？找

8、一個(gè)合適的時(shí)間，并且盡力去做。7、休息這一個(gè)步驟是可以省略的，當(dāng)然,如果你能抽出一天、半天甚至幾天的時(shí)間放松 和恢復(fù)那會(huì)是個(gè)不錯(cuò)的選擇。那可能意味著你有足夠的時(shí)間重新規(guī)劃清單上的任 務(wù)，并且在這段時(shí)間你不會(huì)感到壓力，當(dāng)你回到工作時(shí)也不會(huì)覺得不知所措。 根 據(jù)你的承諾把所有事情往后推遲一周、兩周或一個(gè)月，這樣當(dāng)你回到工作時(shí)手頭 上就不會(huì)有任何緊急的事情要處理了。 然后抽出一段時(shí)間不做任何工作，甚至不 去想它。當(dāng)你重新回到工作時(shí)拿出 30到60分鐘把任務(wù)整理和計(jì)劃好，確保你 能全力投入其中并且不會(huì)感到負(fù)擔(dān)過大（到下一步）。8、創(chuàng)造一個(gè)理想的工作日你認(rèn)為一個(gè)理想的工作日是怎樣的？你在什么時(shí)候做最重要

9、的工作？你會(huì)在什 么時(shí)候開始和結(jié)束？你會(huì)在什么時(shí)候休息、 開會(huì)、吃午餐？我建議你能設(shè)定出工 作日程，根據(jù)特定的任務(wù)安排不同的時(shí)間。比如我也許會(huì)安排早上的兩個(gè)小時(shí)寫 作，另外的4個(gè)小時(shí)用來交流（電子郵件等），兩個(gè)多小時(shí)來完成最重要的項(xiàng)目， 一個(gè)小時(shí)鍛煉，一個(gè)小時(shí)來做一些小事情等等。通過制定這樣的日程（盡可能的 堅(jiān)持它）你能創(chuàng)造一個(gè)可以防止你工作負(fù)擔(dān)過重的工作流程，并且讓你時(shí)刻保持 最高效率。A Guide to Cutting Back When You Feel OverwhelmedA Guide to Cutting Back WhenYou Feel OverwhelmedWhy We

10、Get OverwhelmedI think the tendency for most of us is to say yes to most of the things coming into our lives.Maybe it s that we re too nice to say no. Maybe it s that we are overly optimistic about how muchwe can get done. Maybe we don t want to look bad by saying we can t do something. Or maybewe r

And we becomeoverwhelmed, stressed, and exhausted.As you know, simplicity is the key

See if you can reduce that source of stress. For this article, we re going to assume that it s your workload, whether th

21、at s personal or business work. And theway to reduce that source of stress is to cut back on your workload. Let s look at how to do that. How to Cut BackThe problem is, most people who are overwhelmed feel like they just can t cut back. They feel like they need to work harder to get everything done

22、that needs to get done. They think that taking a break, or cutting back on their workload, is out of the question.If that s you, you re probably the person who needs to cut back the most. Of course, I m not iposition to judge you, but it s something to consider.So how do you cut back when you feel l

23、ike you can t? Based on stuff that s worked for me, here are my recommendations:t, then schedulStep back . In order to make the decisions necessary for cutting back, you need to take a fewminutes to clear your head and think. Stop whatever you re doing (or if you can e 30 minutes for sometime today)

24、, and take some time to consider everything you have going on. Take a walk to clear your head if necessary. Get some fresh air.List everything .

It may seem impossible, but if you set limits for yourself, you will be forced tochoose only the essential. The actual limits aren t as important as the act of setting them at this point you can adjust the limi

31、 possible scenario. That will meanrenegotiating everything on your list, probably, so that you don t feel stressed while taking time outor overwhelmed when you get back.

What would

33、 your ideal workday be? When would you work on your most important tasks? When would you start and end? When would you take breaks, hold meetings, have lunch? I suggest mapping out your ideal workday, with blocks of time for certain types of tasks. For example, I might choose 2 hours in the morning

34、to write, another hour for communication (email, etc), 2 more hours to work on my most important project, an hour to exercise, an hour for smaller tasks, etc. By creating this map (and sticking to it as much as possible), you create a structure that will prevent you from becoming overwhelmed, and th
