Sometimes too much excitement can interfere with the achievement of your goals. You need to get rid of the habit of worrying about little things and worry about any reason.
Instructions
Step 1
Use your imagination. Think about the least favorable outcome of the circumstances that make you nervous. Perhaps this technique will help you see the insignificance of the reason for which you are worried, and relieve you of unnecessary emotions.
Step 2
Don't worry about what people say or think about you. First, you shouldn't be so dependent on their opinion that it begins to influence your mood. Secondly, be sure that others are more busy with themselves, and they pay much less attention to your actions and mistakes than you sometimes think.
Step 3
Accept some things as inevitable and accept them. There are factors that you cannot influence. However, it is not always possible to relax in a situation in which nothing depends on you. Own powerlessness and a state of uncertainty make you nervous and worried. Do this: Make peace with what might happen in advance, and let go of the situation. If you are prepared for the worst case scenario, then you will only be glad when circumstances turn out differently.
Step 4
Prepare for unforeseen situations as well as possible. And to the foreseen too. Just do whatever depends on you. If you are worried about whether your presentation will go well or not, check again your knowledge of the main theses, think over possible questions from the audience, review the materials. This should calm you down.
Step 5
Work on self-esteem. It happens that a person is worried about literally any reason, because he does not believe in his own strength. If you don't trust yourself, anxiety management techniques may not help you. Remember your merits, accept yourself as you are, find your strengths and think less about the shortcomings.
Step 6
Learn to distract yourself. Sometimes switching to some other process helps to get rid of worries. Immerse yourself in creativity or work, the main thing is that the business should either fully use all your intellectual resources, or become something like meditation. The first group of actions includes solving complex problems, and the second - handicrafts or gardening.
Step 7
Get some rest. Perhaps your worries are related to the fact that you do not know how to relax. Take breaks regularly, even if you're not tired yet. Allocate enough time for sleep, do not neglect a full vacation. Remember that not only the body suffers from a lack of rest, but also the nervous system.
