Takeaways:
Top 5 Tips for Dealing with Frustration:
- Recognize the moment of frustration
- Investigation
- Use breathing techniques
- Have a backup plan
- "Now that you have some clarity about what you want, it’s time to challenge yourself to view your predicament in a more optimal way. In other words, it’s time to shift your perspective of the situation and choose to view your frustrations as an opportunity or challenge to do things better. Your first objective is to identify what exactly has been working for you. There must be something that you have done well. Identify what that is and then also figure out the mistakes you might have made along the way. Now view those mistakes as helpful coincidences and use them as an opportunity for positive change."
- Shift your perspective
- Think flexibly and creatively
