i crumble under pressure
-
sometimes b4 i am about to do something important,i tell myself i wanna do my best.But sometimes i just get so nervous over little stuff.I tried deep breathing techniques but it doesnt really help.Anyone got advice for me?
-
did you attempt to clear your mind?
-
do some preparations beforehand .......
when u feel more prepared, u would feel less pressure
-
Try some other relaxation techniques like meditations etc... Or try activities that can build up your self-confidence...?Originally posted by loneFighter:sometimes b4 i am about to do something important,i tell myself i wanna do my best.But sometimes i just get so nervous over little stuff.I tried deep breathing techniques but it doesnt really help.Anyone got advice for me? -
Everyone crumbles under pressure at some point. There's nothing wrong
Maybe you could try practicing or rehearsing; it makes the real thing go smoother. -
what is that something important?
-
try not to be thinking of the thing..
put on an ipod and realx..

you lack confidence, yet wanting to do more, perhaps beyond your ability and not willing to accept defeat.
if you r willing to accept defeat as a natural course of reaction, to accept the mistake and learn to overcome them, only then you can b a better person. -
Can you specify what these 'important things' are that caused you so much pressure?
-
I dont think much breathing exercise would help you. You need to change the way you think. Learn to break down problems into smaller problems
micro manage. Or take things easy.
Just like me, I forgot how to act like Im under pressure or stress
-
get used to failing, thats the only way...
u might think its intimidating to fight a guy larger than u, or ask a stranger hot gal for number. but if u do it 100x cfm one day u'll get bored LoL -
sometimes i like pressure...sometimes i hate it...its how u manage it really...
tiger woods is the perfect demostration of handling pressure...learn from him... -
Crumble under pressure eh?
HMMM.. -
Do not work on what one would call external pressures. ie If there are pple looking at you, the situation is too big for u to handle. Realise that the pressure is all coming from yrself.. it is INTERNAL NOT EXTERNAL.Originally posted by loneFighter:sometimes b4 i am about to do something important,i tell myself i wanna do my best.But sometimes i just get so nervous over little stuff.I tried deep breathing techniques but it doesnt really help.Anyone got advice for me?
The first step is to be able to wholly understand yourself. Have u asked yrself why u feel so pressured? Because u want to do yr best? are you expecting too much from yrself? Breathing techniques will not help, unless u go deep within yrself and search out yr inner fears and deal correctly with them.
Willing to hear from you abt wat it is u really fear. May be able to advise on how u can properly deal with these fears.

thx guys i do feel much better!

Well,
Think abt this.....
What is pressure?
Pressure is a feeling.
By you.
So just remove the pressure, it's all in your mind. You are pressuring yourself.
The reason you crumble under pressure, is because you pressure yourself too much.
Nobody else can apply pressure for you. -
Agreed. its just how much one can take. -
