The crisis is a test for everyone. Every day, a person is faced with its manifestations in a store, at a gas station and at home. The media are escalating the situation, the threat of dismissal is hanging at work, there are many unresolved problems in the family. But to withstand this turning point, you need to protect yourself from negativity and rethink your life.
Instructions
Step 1
Save yourself the flow of unnecessary information. Arrange yourself fasting days from the news on TV. Usually psychologists set 21 days of rest from the flow of information. Even if you need to keep abreast of the latest developments, check the news headlines on the internet, but don't read the details. It is better to satisfy the hunger for information by reading books, entertainment magazines and listening to music.
Step 2
Protect yourself from negativity. Don't let other people drag you into conversations about crisis, war, and disasters. Avoid discussing such topics, laugh it off. Better yet, protect yourself from meetings with such "sufferers." Do not take on anyone's negativity, do not let anyone "vampire" you. An unstable economic situation is a great excuse to rid yourself of unwanted surroundings.
Step 3
Allow yourself a little joy every day. Some may have ice cream, and some may have shoes. But the point comes down to the fact that you are worthy of the promotion. Do not swear to yourself that you cannot fundamentally change the situation right now. But you can control your life. Separate your life and the life of your family from society as a whole. Try to live autonomously without tying yourself to the world's problems.
Step 4
If during a crisis you had to change your job for a less paid one, treat it only as another milestone in your life. Work is not all life. Constantly look through vacancies, study remotely, participate in trainings. Review remote work offers. Don't be afraid to lose your insignia. If you are offered a job in a smaller position but with a higher salary, go ahead. Career growth has not yet been canceled.
Step 5
Clean up your house. Get rid of unnecessary things. By the way, a lot can be sold, something can be exchanged, what can be distributed among relatives, receiving a jar of homemade jam in return. Now, in general, is the time to unite family ties. A large, close-knit family is more likely to survive instability with minimal loss. A crisis can also bring about a change in gender roles, when a woman becomes a breadwinner, and a man takes over household chores. But you need to understand that this is a temporary phenomenon, and not flirt.
Step 6
Continue to live an active life. If you used to fly to Europe once a month for a weekend, now you have the opportunity to explore the surroundings of your city. Look for affordable entertainment. For example, on the third Sunday of every month, admission to some museums is free. Religion helps someone. This makes it easier to look at your problems in an abstract way, ask your spiritual father for advice, and reorient your values.
