What to do when facing pressure

Pressure is a part of life, no one escapes it. We are more conscious of it in this day of jet travel, computers and frenetic activity than those who lived in farming communities fifty years ago. But no matter where you live or what you do in life you sure will experience pressure. It is inescapable. Pressure is inevitable. For any hardworking being it's good to experience pressure. It is evidence that your brain is working; you stress your brain, for normal functioning of your heart. But you don't have to burden your heart with worries. It's good to think, think out ideas but don't worry your brain. See also, "productive thinking"

Pressure is a condition that is being oppressive, this could be physical, mental or economic or even social distress. Everyone needs pressure for survival. This is because human being is insatiable. Everyday we hurry out to our various businesses, some workaholics, we all are testifiers of pressure. Though at some point we don't need high pressure which is caused by worries. Note:  worry is quite different from thinking. See also, "stress and sources of stress"

The one thing you need to know about pressure is that it isn't all bad. In fact, in many cases it is good for you. Without it you couldn't sustain life. Take for instance your blood pressure, if it is too high it can kill you, but if it is too low, same thing is likely going to happen. Life without pressure would be empty and brief. You need pressure to provide not only life itself but motivation, variety and activity.

How to manage pressure before pressure manages you:
I now come to realize that all temperaments do not have pressure the same way.
Before further discussion on this you should know that the inception of this particular situation shows you are alive. Every human has to experience pressure.

Things you should expect when you connect with your spot

Get out of the rat race. After all, if you win, you will simply be the big rat. Stop running in the competition. The only person you should compete with is yourself. "how well am I performing in my leadership spot," is what you should ask yourself. You have to know that the battery does not compete with a spark plug, because the battery knows the spark plug can never be a battery, and so on. They sit in the engine in their spots and serve the engine their gift without competing

Why does negative behaviour continue?

It works. There is some kind of payoff, some type of momentary satisfaction that is derived from not changing. The reward might be financial or psychological. Some people will continue unproductive behaviour to seek approval, acceptance, praise, or love. Others continue their unacceptable actions out of pride, greed or a sense of personal fulfilment. They may oppress others with their need to always be right because they treasure being right- even if it destroys a relationship.

Adding value to other people is the work of a positive influencer

As you move up to the higher levels of influence and become an active influencer, you can begin to have a positive influence on people and add value on their lives. That's true for any positive influencer. The baby-sitter who reads to the child encourages him to love books and helps him become a lifelong learner. The teacher who puts his faith, confidence, and love on a child helps the child to feel valued and good about herself. That boss who delegates to the employees and gives them authority as well as responsibility enlarges their horizons and empowers them to become better workers and people. Even the parents who know how to give their children grace and when to, also help them to stay open and communicative. All of these people add lasting value to the lives of other people. One thing is this, we don't know what kind of influence you have on others, today as you read this article. Your actions may touch the lives of thousands of people. Perhaps you use the opportunity
