Add This Tool to Your Toolbox

Emotional self-regulation is a powerful tool. Add it to your others:

  • Mindfulness including "stop and take a breath"
  • Visualization
  • Conventional self-talk

Don't allow yourself to be hurt by "the second arrow."

Don't take personally what others say because their comments often say more about them than they do about you. Some said, "Melrose's game is 'too simple'." Mature simplicity is powerful. 

Don't allow emotion to put you in a "bad place" where you cannot perform at your best, decide best, or bring your best version. 

In addition to your "identity statement" (this is who I am) and your "performance statement" (this is how I play), recognize and say your emotional state.
