Emotional agility skills

Fear of mistakes can prevent people from taking action. Overcome this paralysis with emotional agility skills:

• State your fears out loud. It will help diffuse them.
• Accept reality. List every truth you need to accept. "I understand that people will not always behave in ideal ways."
• Act on your values. Identify your five most important values related to decision-making in a crisis, then ask yourself how each of those is relevant to the critical choices you face.
