CALM
- Choose to physically remove yourself from the situation
- Take a walk, go to another room, step away
- If you cannot get away then turn away, close your eyes, take a few deep breaths
- Accept that there is a bigger picture, look for it
- There are rewards to staying calm, think of those things
- There are costs to not saying calm, think of those things
- Learn to choose to stay calm
- Yes, it is a choice and yes you will have to repeat that choice
- Focus on the says, pictures, things that inspire you to be your better self
- This takes time, do not quit – you are worth it
- Mold yourself into the stable, reliable person, family member, coworker that others need
- Emotions have power, do not use that power to control the situation or others
- You do not win anything of value when you bully others to get it
- Become the person that you would be grateful to rely on
