You are not sure, you are thinking about it. Then you have to change your thought pattern and say to yourself, “It is better to think that it is uncertain than to think that it is certain.”
If there are specific facts about a situation that you are not sure of, do not think that you are certain about them. Rather, think about what would happen if you were certain about them. Then, if you are uncertain about them, you will be sure that they are in the process of change.
Another way to change your thinking is to think of alternatives and consider them in addition to your current position. For instance, if you are deciding about a course of action in a situation, rather than focus on what course of action is worse, think about the alternatives. Think about whether they would better serve you. This way, you will come to a positive conclusion.
About thinking too much on negative scenarios or thoughts that are not realistic, do not worry too much. Instead, think about what would be the best course of action.
In situations where there are facts that you are not sure about, do not worry too much. Try to relax and see that in the process of reading your information, the information is changed or clarified. This will take time.
Try to reduce your stress by using the stress reduction tips below.
1) Try to make the most of your experience. What will you gain by keeping certain things vague? For instance, the stress was caused by the fact that you do not know how many people are expected to be in the meeting room. Instead, take all possible circumstances into consideration when thinking about the meeting and try to get all the facts to make your decision on the size of the room.
2) Think about future consequences. You will not always know how any event or circumstance will affect the future. Sometimes, even if the possible consequences are known, you can still reduce your stress by trying to not let the future stress affect your present life.
It may be that you are too concerned about the meeting but do not remove yourself from your daily routine. Instead, think about how to deal with the situation.
3) Take a break. Go to the washroom or the rest room to calm down. Do not think about the meeting until you have calmed down. Do not continue with your meeting where you get stressed. If possible, listen to some music to refresh your mind.
4) Have a short lunch. This will refresh your body and your mind. After lunch, try to return to work. Do not think about your meeting while you are at work. Instead, think about what will happen at your work. If you think about your meeting too much, it may affect your work. In this case, it would be better to have lunch.
5) Relax. Do not think about your meeting as you are not allowed to think. Instead, get your thoughts together by reviewing your notes and prepare for the meeting. Take some deep breathes to get your muscles and systems working. Think of your meeting as a short break and take your lunch break.
6) Get some water. By having water, your body will be renewed. You will be refreshed and can think more clearly. Try to take this water from the water fountain. At times, you may be served bottled water. You can also be served water from the vending machine.
7) Try to have a walk outside at some place to calm down. The outside air by nature will not contain too much stress and pollution. And it will not contain mosquitoes either. By having a walk, your body and mind will feel the fresh air and nature.
8) Try to rest your eyes after working. The eyes and ears can be affected by bright lights and noise. Try to go out for a while to get your blood pressure under control. Your eyes can be affected by the dust and dirt in the air.
Then, you can go to the washroom or the sauna. And by having the sauna, your whole body and mind will be revitalized. Your body and mind will work well if you are not affected by stress.
9) Have a short break at the end of your day. After having your short break, your entire body and mind will be refreshed. And your mind and body will be able to work well.
10) Have your own farm. By having your own farm, you will be able to be a part of nature and to have quiet time to think. And your whole body and mind will be able to work well.
Lastly, relax, loosen up and get rid of stress from your life. You will discover useful, budget-friendly and not so inexpensive methods to a much healthier life.
