It's related to your ability to act instead of reacting when things don’t go your way.
Your reactivity impacts your attitude, performance, effectiveness and how others perceive you.
The real distress from an unpleasant situation comes from the reaction to the situation, not from the initial event itself.
If you can avoid reacting when uncontrollable events happen, you can reduce your stress and improve your effectiveness and well-being.Â
Hold your reaction and observe the situation with curiosity from a bird's eye view.
Self-Regulation is the ability to stay calm and collected in the middle of a distressing situation.
Develop the skill to see the initial situation and your reaction to it separately. Self-regulation (self-calming) helps you recognize your emotions and not to react based on your emotions.

At the beginning of every week, write a two-by-two matrix on a blank sheet of paper.
One side of the matrix says "urgent" and "not urgent". The other side of the matrix says "important"...
These are the most pressing tasks we'll likely get to this week. When we do fire-fighting, it's all relating to stuff in this quadrant.
These are the things that matter in the long-term but will offer no concrete benefits right now or even this year. They are things we know we need to get to but probably will push off.Â

Nothing will ever get done if we wait for things to happen.Â
Take the reins in your own hands to start a movement.
Knowing where the end lies helps to put us into action.Â
Continue to keep your end goal in mind.
It can be tempting to stop something halfway through when it gets difficult. Â
The difficulty of an activity shouldn't change the fact that it's our priority. Stay the course.
