An unexpected BENEFIT if you can always calmly explain your opinion
An unexpected BENEFIT if you can always calmly explain your opinion
Of course, staying calm is primarily good for your own mental health, but things need to get done by deadlines, there is always some timely pressure.
Speed and calmness seem like opposites, but in reality, they are mutually supportive states. If you rush nervously, you make mistakes, and the entire process takes longer to complete.
Rushing leads to overthinking, which in turn makes you even more nervous.
When you are nervous, there is no clarity, excessive emotions steal your time.
There is a saying, “Morning is wiser than evening,” meaning, have a good night sleep and then you will see the situation in a completely new light. A calm state is always important, especially in rapidly evolving situations, as the ultimate goal must not be lost from sight.
If it seems that things are not moving fast enough in the desired direction, there may be a temptation to rush ahead, yell at others, command them, meaning you lose your self-control. The latter might be done on the assumption that you are 100% sure that you are right. Still, do you know anyone who is 100% right out of 100 times? I don’t.
What happens if you yell at others, command them, but in this particular instance, you were not right? You lose the respect of others!
If you are a leader and your patience breaks because others did something, or if you personally felt fear or emotional pain for a moment, or simply had a bad night’s sleep, and in that moment you were not right, then your subordinates will feel that you abused your power.
Making others feel bad does not make them TRULY cooperate—quite the opposite.
To prevent such a situation, one option is to always double-check your claims multiple times, but this requires a lot of time and energy, and even leaders are allowed to make mistakes.
But here comes the UNEXPECTED BENEFIT INTO PLAY IF YOU ALWAYS STAY CALM!
If you remain calm and your claim was incorrect, it is very easy to back down, admit your mistake, and you will not lose respect in the eyes of others!
Even more so, you will be valued even more for being calm, flexible, and acknowledging your mistakes. You will be a person with whom people naturally want to collaborate.
Respect for you will grow!
We get into trouble not because of what we do not know, but because of what we think we definitely know but which is actually incorrect.
In any situation, whether professional or personal—and especially in personal matters, because those involve the people closest to you—if you stay calm, relationships remain trustworthy and respectful.
Reactivity and irritation are always internal pain, and a good idea is to focus on self-development rather than forcibly correcting others.
