I'll be right back with my commentary I'm constantly thinking about how to optimize my health what supplements to take hours of sleep what my diet should focus on Superpower finally takes the guessing

this could definitely be one of those easier said than done things because when we're actually in those moments of pressure Or dealing with problems making me hard to become clear-headed enough to remember to try some of these steps But that said I do think there are some good points that I think we can all use and think about like for me not blaming others It's a good reminder so easy to point fingers when things go wrong But every time I've caught myself doing that it's never made me feel better If anything it just made me feel more stuck and as for staying calm under pressure I pretty much always seem calm on the outside people think I am but on the inside there could be a lot going on That's a tough one staying calm I remember when I first started this podcast there were times when things would go wrong Maybe the audio wasn't great or got messed up or I'd be recording last minute that flood my words may be really frustrating But over time I've learned to take that deep breath just like the article says It's amazing how much difference a few seconds of pause can make But I think the biggest takeaway for me is that last point just getting busy solving the problem doing things Reminds me of what I learned in the book how to stop worrying and start living by Dale Carnegie Basically you said staying busy is the antidote to anxiety When we're just sitting there worrying that's when things start to feel really overwhelming But when we start doing something productive really anything suddenly we feel a bit more in control and things don't seem as bad So
