To maximize the positive use of stress energy:
- believe you can succeed,
- truly understand your personal talents and strengths,
- anticipate situations and prepare [in advance] your reaction to them,
- gather the tools and people support you need prior to the arrival of the situation/event, and
- practice self-talk/autosuggestion/affirmations designed to bolster your self-confidence and courage.
Accept the fact things will go awry: appreciate that provides opportunity to build courage and confidence.
We grow when we overcome obstacles, especially when we plan in advance then take action that proves we can overcome obstacles.
