Introduction

How this book will help you

When you are at the peak of your abilities, you enjoy the work of successfully completing a project or closing a deal. You earn respect and are rewarded by making other people's lives better. You feel that you have achieved success and found your working rhythm. At the end of the day, your enthusiasm is enough to connect with people and activities that are important to you - and there is even time to find peace of mind. But many have too much to do and too many obstacles lurk on the way to the goal - besides, you constantly have to deal with nervous and tense people.

Welcome to a new reality where all kinds of stresses exhaust you, making it increasingly difficult to stay afloat - not to mention succeed.

But you can do more than you think. This book presents more than 100 strategies to succeed in a stressful situation, whether it's a relationship problem or a work rush when there's not enough time for anything. New knowledge and skills will provide you with stress resistance, giving you the ability to control every day of your life. By working less and earning more, you will always find time for reflection and contemplation.

As a business psychologist and having trained more than 6,000 people, I have watched some people cope with stress, successfully complete projects and not waste energy, while others simply struggle to survive. There is a set of skills that distinguish one group from another. Each of us already there is a treasure trove of valuable skills - it remains only to find the key to it.

Once you learn the secrets of stress resistance, how income will begin to grow before your eyes. Indeed, 71% of top managers around the world confirm that psychological resilience and the ability to see new opportunities in every obstacle are “very” and even “extremely” important factors for them when choosing employees (1). Business owners who are strategic in their day-to-day planning are seeing rapid growth in their business.

I wrote a book on resilience to help you succeed and become a top performer without compromising your quality of life. Stressful situations will no longer ruin your day and prevent you from achieving your goal. You will learn to manage stress and, more importantly, to see opportunities in obstacles - the only way to eradicate stress. By distributing the workload, you will learn to overcome difficulties, generate new ideas and make unconventional decisions. You will learn how to motivate and influence people by making them your supporters (instead of wasting energy trying to get rid of feelings of powerlessness). You will speak out decisively in meetings and find a common language with clients who were too tough for you until recently. If you encounter a problem or seemingly hopeless situation, the new tools described in the book will help you get out of the impasse and move on to the intended you way.

This book goes beyond truisms about proper nutrition and healthy sleep, or - in a pinch - how to "take a deep breath and get some fresh air." Of course, this approach helps many, but it is hardly able to reduce the influence of the modern rhythm on the success and quality of life. The algorithm for getting out of any difficult situation, described on the pages of this book, is based on three basic rules: you need to change your attitude to the problem, your physical reaction to the problem or the problem itself.

Change your attitude towards the situation. If you look at the problem from a different angle, you can find new solutions.

Learn to manage your physiology. Focus when you're overwhelmed, find sources of energy when you feel like you're running out of energy, and calm down when you're agitated or irritated.

Solve the problem. Eliminate the source of stress, and you will never have to deal with it again!

Once you try any of these approaches, you will immediately notice how stress levels have decreased and efficiency has increased. And if you apply the elements all three approaches, you can cope with any stressful situation.

But most importantly: I understand how busy you are, and therefore almost any of the tools described can be mastered in less than three minutes. What benefit will you end up getting?

You will gain more control over your life. When you finally stop running in circles, you will begin to move straight towards your goal. You will learn to better control your schedule, reduce the stress associated with the constant fear of missing out on opportunities or failing to attract a client. You will achieve everything, once you learn to use your abilities 100%. You will end everything that consumed your time and energy; learn to say “no” when the tasks and projects assigned to you are moving you away from your desired goal.

Save energy and enthusiasm after a working day. The book talks about tools that will allow you to "turn on" and "off" at the click of a button. You will learn to focus when you need to and relax when you want to - this is a recipe for energy conservation, a life of pleasure and healthy sleep. You will find a balance between professional work and a fulfilling life and forget about your desire to please everyone - you yourself have taken on this burden. If you are prone to self-flagellation, if you feel that you are inferior to your competitors in some way, or if you take everything too personally, this book is for you - it will help you tune in to positive thinking. If you're afraid to speak in front of an audience and can't pick up the phone and call a potential client who you think won't want to listen to you, this book will give you the confidence to take action. If you have to communicate with an unpleasant interlocutor, you will be able to quickly calm down and safely conduct a meeting. You will learn to disengage from emotions and control violent reactions.

See the opportunity in every obstacle. You will learn how to solve problems and get rid of stress, easily adapt your activities when, for example, priorities change or when you do not receive feedback on the work done. This book contains a plan of action and a set of skills that will enable you to thrive in today's dynamic world. You will discover the ability to “adapt and even enjoy ever-changing career opportunities, business models and starting conditions”(2). Soon, new perspectives will open up for you, allowing you to “come out of the shadows” and move forward with confidence. And if it seems to you that you have become a victim of circumstances and you see only obstacles in front of you - delays in production, the inability to move up the career ladder, achieve financial goals - you will learn to turn such situations to your advantage.

This book is for you if you:

You work in stressful conditions, when you constantly have to motivate people to achieve results;

You manage your own business and are responsible for all processes;

Strive to reduce financial stress by feeling that you are already on the edge;

Do not feel confident in yourself and therefore hinder your own success, or you overreact (especially when dealing with difficult people).

Introduction

How this book will help you

Welcome to a new reality where all kinds of stresses exhaust you, making it increasingly difficult to stay afloat - not to mention succeed.

Once you learn the secrets of stress resistance, how income will begin to grow before your eyes. Indeed, 71% of top managers around the world confirm that psychological stability and the ability to see new opportunities in every obstacle are “very” and even “extremely” important factors for them when choosing employees.

Stress is my sore subject

Judge for yourself:

young father
Hard worker
Perfectionist
Restless and nervous person
I am constantly short of funds.
Live in Russia))

Oh, this book is in the right hands! I used to give myself up to stress without a trace. High blood pressure, headaches, endless whining… I just wanted to run away, hide, fall on my mother's boobs - a pitiful sight. Not surprisingly, all my life I have shied away from any strenuous activity. I chose ready-made solutions. He behaved modestly. I did not understand what stress is, where it comes from. For me it was an absolutely negative phenomenon. The first book that made me look at stress differently was Stress Surfing by Ivan Kirillov. I liked the book and received a rating of 7/10 in my review. For a whole month, I purposefully tracked stressful situations and fought them according to Kirillov. My attitude towards stress has completely changed. From Helplessly Negative to Confidently Positive:

Stress is a necessary component of growth
Stress is a test of myself that makes me stronger. Next time I'll take the stress lighter
Stress - shakes up my life and does not let it stagnate
Avoiding stress will only make the stress worse next time.

If earlier I avoided stresses, now I aspire to them. These ideas really pissed me off. It was they who pushed me to, for example, that I declared 2014 for myself - “The Year Out of the Comfort Zone” and waved a savage to Thailand for the winter. And yet I couldn't completely banish the "bad stress" from my life. Therefore, I gladly responded to the offer of the publishing house "Mann, Ivanov and Ferber" to review their new book "Stress Resistance" by Sharon Melnick.

I read the book for a long time

No, not what you thought. The book is easy to read. It’s just that each paragraph of the text forced me to stop, put the reader down and remember, remember, remember. I thought about various cases from my life: conflicts with colleagues, minor domestic troubles, blockages at work. And most importantly, my REACTION to them. So here's what the book is about:

Stress from too much to do
Phobias
How not to worry about what others think
Lack of self-esteem
Anger management
Relationship stress
And much more!

Book format

Sharon Melnick is a practicing psychologist and it shows. The book worked out. She breaks down common sources of stress. All in mini-story format. Each chapter ends with exercises. There are also various tests. This is great. That's the way books should be written. In general, I have not seen such a book filled with specific advice for a long time. You are already starting to get used to the fact that in any book 90% of garbage and you have to read because of the remaining 10%. Everything is different here. The book is helpful from start to finish. I did not even try to write out the valuable thoughts of the book in this review. We'll have to stupidly rewrite it all.

An amazing coincidence?

The 7 Habits by Stephen Covey
"Flow" by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
"GTD" by David Allen
"Never Eat Alone" by Keita Ferrazi.

Given that I'm usually very stingy with "tens", this is simply amazing. Does that mean she's my soul mate?

Summary

Read: necessarily. Everyone. Grade: 10/10 It's not just good books that I read and set aside that get the highest rating from me. And those books that make me change my life, make me write down some specific steps in my planner, and so on. The Resilience book will definitely change my life. I have already planned to read it for the SECOND time. I will make a “combat cheat sheet” to work on myself and my attitude to stress. In the near future, more than one article inspired by Sharon's ideas will appear here or on my blog. By the way, reading the book itself has a powerful healing effect. I began to read the book, exhausted from the work stress that had taken hold of me in recent days. And he ended up calm and confident. It was as if I had been to a psychologist session)) Thank you, Sharon Melnik!
