呼吸,呼吸
工作中總有這么些時(shí)候:一個(gè)難搞的客戶攪黃了整個(gè)會議;你的老板為了那些你無法控制的事情對你大聲呵斥;某個(gè)項(xiàng)目就是莫名其妙地不好使。碰到這種時(shí)候,你是不是覺得血壓飆升,呼吸困難?別急,面對這些惱火的事,六招助你火氣消消消!
1. Just Breathe
呼吸,呼吸
Though your first instinct might be to open your mouth and snap back or just scream-close it and breathe instead. You've heard it before, right? Just count to 10. But there's a point there: "While it may not remove the stressor, it buys you time to step back, put things in perspective, and bite your tongue before you say something you might regret."
你的第一反應(yīng)可能是張嘴反駁,或者張嘴尖叫,但是,閉上嘴,呼吸。你可能聽過這種說法,數(shù)十下。這里需要注意的是,“這種方法可能不能讓你釋然,但是可以為你贏得時(shí)間,以免你說出一些會讓你后悔的話?!?/div>

寫下來
2. Write It Out
把情緒寫下來
Sometimes, finding that emotional release can be as simple as getting your feelings into words. So grab a pen and some paper and ink out your thoughts-just keep them to yourself. "Don't put anything in writing [to someone else] when you've been provoked. “Your best bet: once you've exorcised your demons, shred (or permanently delete) the evidence.
有時(shí)候,發(fā)泄情緒的簡單方法就是把它寫下來。所以,趕緊抓起一支筆,一些紙,把你的想法一股腦地寫下來。但記住,“不要把你在盛怒下寫下來的東西給任何人看”。最好的做法是,一旦你發(fā)泄完了,就把證據(jù)銷毀了。
找一個(gè)信得過的同事發(fā)泄
3. Vent to a Trusted Colleague
找一個(gè)信得過的同事發(fā)泄
Most of us have at least one close ally at work, someone we can confide in about everything job-related. So next time your boss really gets under your skin, a brief venting session with this trusted comrade can help put things back in perspective. Just be sure to do it out of earshot of anyone else-a nearby Starbucks may be a safer bet than your cube. And be sure to offer the same safe confidence next time your partner-in-crime is feeling spent, too.
大多數(shù)人都會有一個(gè)和你在同一陣營的好同事,他們會替我們保守秘密。如果下次你再被老板惹毛了,你就找這個(gè)可以信賴的同事去宣泄一下你的情緒,這樣有助于你重新回到正常的軌道上來。但是,注意隔墻有耳,與其在你的格子間里說,不如到附近找個(gè)星巴克去說,這樣要來得安全得多。記住,下次如果你的伙伴也遇到問題,需要發(fā)泄的時(shí)候,你也要回報(bào)他們。
獲得一點(diǎn)點(diǎn)愛
4. Get a Little Love
獲得一點(diǎn)點(diǎn)愛
Sometimes, what you really need is a hug. Good friends or significant others can be the perfect source for support in difficult situations. If you can sneak in a quick text or call and hear a familiar voice for a few minutes, it may be just enough to talk you off the ledge. Even if your loved ones can't offer the same inside perspective as a work comrade can, the personal boost can go a long way in cheering you up or reminding you that there is more to life than the current predicament.
有時(shí)候,你需要的就是一個(gè)擁抱而已。好朋友或者是對你來說很重要的人是你在遇到困難時(shí)去尋求幫助的最好對象。如果你可以悄悄地發(fā)條短信,或者打個(gè)電話給這些人,聽到他們熟悉的聲音,很有可能你就會釋然了。即使你所愛的人沒有辦法提供給你同事般的意見,他們的鼓勵也可以使你振作起來,并提醒你,除了現(xiàn)在這種窘?jīng)r之外,自己生活中還有很多事要去做。
去你的“歡樂谷”
5. Find Your Happy Place
去你的“歡樂谷”
Taking a few minutes to peruse a favorite website can give you a great mental escape. So if you need to calm down after a particularly anger-inducing morning, check out the latest Anthropologie sale, or get in a couple rounds of Angry Birds at lunch. Taking that short break to distract yourself or focus on something that makes you happy can ease your stress and help you to return to work in a better mood.
花幾分鐘的時(shí)間去你最喜歡的網(wǎng)站上,仔細(xì)地閱讀,這么做會在精神上給自己一個(gè)出口。所以,下次如果你受了一個(gè)早上的氣之后需要冷靜下來,那就去Anthropologie(美國零售業(yè)先鋒品牌)的網(wǎng)站上看看有沒有特賣,或者在午飯時(shí)打幾圈憤怒的小鳥來發(fā)泄一下。稍微放松一下可以分散你的注意力,關(guān)注那些可以讓你高興的事就能減少壓力,幫助你更好地回到工作中去。
休息一下
6. Take a Break
休息一下
If things are really intense-say, you've just been passed up for a promotion by the colleague who took credit for your great idea-one of the best solutions can be to remove yourself (at least temporarily) from the situation. Take your lunch, go grab coffee, or just walk outside a bit-leaving your phone and email behind. Getting out from the confines of those four walls can provide you the physical and mental distance you need to blow off some steam and relax.
如果事情實(shí)在糟糕,比方說你的一個(gè)同事由于剽竊了你的創(chuàng)意而讓你錯失了升職的機(jī)會,這個(gè)時(shí)候,你最好抽身出來,即使是暫時(shí)的也好。去吃個(gè)午餐,喝杯咖啡,或者就是到外面去走走,把電話和郵件都拋在腦后。從四面墻圍起來的空間中走出來,可以給你的身心一個(gè)距離,去釋放,去放松。
