4. Avoid the Panic Zone
When a task is TOO difficult, we may panic.
It may feel overwhelming – as if we are wearing boggle glasses. The task
may feel impossible.
When we feel like this, we have
entered the Danger Panic Zone.
The Danger Panic Zone is not a good
place to be because the levels of
stress released into our body stop us
from being at our Brain Best.
When we feel like this, we need to ask
to start with something a little easier.
We can then take baby steps forward.
