The right time and place
(Dealing With Stress)
How many of us have had unsatisfactory (or miserable) results because of hurried conversations? Lots of us, I believe. It seems key to me to consider: It's better not to have a conversation than to have a quickie that makes things worse Taking a moment to think if this is the best moment for me to talk; and asking the other person if it is good for them is always helpful. Remembering that sensitive topics are best covered in private, and if conflict is involved, on "neutral turf" (not at either person's office). Jointly selecting the time and place is a good beginning to a meeting. * Collecting my thoughts and writing down the key points I want to cover will ensure that they get covered; and that the other person's time is not wasted. * Listening attentively to both verbal and non-verbal language of the other person is the key to successful communication. * If near-perfect clarity is desired, writing a letter to the other person with your version of what was agreed upon will get best results.

Dealing with stress
The word "stress" has become so commonplace and yet so vivid that it can produce a painful reaction just to read it. And certain times of our lives, of each year and in history are more full of stress. Maybe you're in one of those periods. I believe that a certain amount of unusual pressure or stress on us is good. Think about championship athletes and their training programs: each day, they push their minds and bodies and ask for better performance. That's a good kind of stress. Also having to deal with increasing levels of responsibility or sticky interpersonal situations can result in a healthy growth in our capabilities. And then there's unhealthy stress. The kind that occurs when we have choices, like unhealthy relationships, and the kind where we take what comes, as in illness or injuries. Either way, it can seem overwhelming. In these situations, sometimes the best we can do is to try to find meaning for ourselves in overcoming and living through the difficulties. Each day we face the varying levels of stress at work and home, which can be dealt with a number of ways. Some proven, successful approaches are * Finding a few minutes alone for prayer, meditation or quiet time before the busy day begins. This provides a calm, firm foundation for the day's activities. * Looking at stressful situations as challenges to be overcome. It reminds me of going through the rapids in the Grand Canyon. I could either keep my head up and enjoy the rough ride or crouch down and feel sorry for myself. It's how I chose to respond that made the difference in how I felt. * Forgiving myself and others for mistakes. Instead of dwelling on what a jerk that person was who ran the red light, shrug your shoulders, laugh it off and move on. Saves alot of churning stomachaches and worry wrinkles. * Taking a time out when I begin to feel overwhelmed. There's nothing that says I can't take a few moments for some deep breathing and attitude adjustment when there's a break in the action. * Engaging in regular exercise. This can range from simply walking (and talking with the people we love, which is even better) to more strenuous gym routines or sports. All of them result in better feelings and reduced stress. Don't take things too seriously. Deal with your stress in healthy ways and enjoy the ride of your life.
