Stress, frustration, criticism or rejection will affect all of us from time to time. Nevertheless, being able to persevere when things do not go as planned, to remain positive under stressful circumstances, or to accept criticism from others and use it to make things better are often what differentiate high performers.
If you would like to improve in these areas, consider the following suggestions.
1. Remaining positive and productive under stressful circumstances
Begin by accepting the fact that difficulties, stress and pressure are part of every job. The more you focus on how stressful your job is, the more overwhelmed you are likely to feel. Look for ways to give yourself control of the situation and focus on a positive outcome.
If the issue that is bothering you is something you cannot fix, try to accept or ignore it and focus your efforts on something you can control or influence. Avoid wasting your energy worrying about thing beyond your control.
Give yourself a mental break - a few minutes of quiet respite from work demands can relieve stress and pressure. Some people they prefer taking the time to have a solitary lunch. For others, planned physical exercise - walking, sunning, swimming or yoga is most useful. For Muslim - reciting Quran, will work well and useful.
2. Dealing with negative feedback and criticism in a professional manner
The next time you feel someone is being overly critical of you, step back from the situation and try to view it in a more objective manner. Maybe they are just trying to give you information to help you and are making a statement about your personal value or worth.
Remember that all of us need both positive and negative feedback to grow and develop. try to accept both gracefully. If you respond defensively, people may stop providing you with this valuable information.
When you feel your self becoming frustrated or defensive, try to remain calm. Take a few deep breaths to relax and loosen the tension, then focus on what is being said.
When receiving feedback:
1. Listen carefully and try not to interrupt
2. Ask specific questions to make sure you understand what they are trying to convey
3. Briefly repeat, in your own words, what you think the person is saying...(eg. you mean i overreacted when you said....) they will either agree with your restatement or they will refine their point in a way that will help you understand.
4. Acknowledge valid points. Think carefully about what has been said and discuss the points calmly and tactfully.
5. Ask for suggestions on how you should behave under similar circumstances in the future.
Hence, at all time, please do not succumb to any stupid move...don't let emotion rule your mind. Below clip, demonstrated a heart broken person, watch it to the last ~ enjoy it..zazzz...
