Self Control People Move Organizations

At People Move Organizations, we believe that you will be more successful if you are self aware. Knowing your internal states, preferences, resources and intuitions is what makes you self aware, which makes you better at making decisions, interacting with others, and more productive.
 
Self Control is one aspect of self awareness which we will dive into in this episode.
 
Self Control = keeping disruptive emotions and impulses in check.
 
People who are good at self control:
Stay composed Positive Unflappable Think clearly Stay focused  
Self control is invisible – it is the absence of drama.

There are tools that can help you keep disruptive emotions and impulses in check:
 
Give it perspective
Think about your situation in terms of who will die as a result. This really gives you perspective to realize that although you are currently feeling stressed, it isn’t – literally – the end of the world.
 
Recognize your personal filters
Something that may be devastating to you might be a great opportunity to someone else. Every situation can have multiple, legitimate responses. Your response may be legitimate for you, but remembering that it isn’t the same for everyone can help you stay composed.
