It is incredibly hard to stay calm and rational, during a crisis, when you're facing stress, anxiety and uncertainty. How do you make the right call? How do you say, or do, the right thing, at the right time ?
Now that’s where understanding the Science of stress, and the Psychology of Decision-Making, can make all the difference !
Our brains have developed lots of strategies to deal with stress, over millions of years. But those Strategies only work well for the type of stresses our ancestors faced, life and death situations like a saber toothed tiger, a new disease, or conflicts with other tribes. Situations which required instant action.
Fast forward to today - no saber toothed tigers, but plenty of modern-day stressors, like Tight Deadlines, Social Media harassment, Financial worries, or Political arguments.
Our brains still respond like we're in a life-or-death situation, and prepare us for quick action. But that is not so helpful, and can even be harmful, in today’s world.
And our innate stress response can significantly change the way we think and make decisions. It can make us ignore viable alternatives, take problematic shortcuts, and even make us freeze, in an analysis paralysis, unable to make any decision at all !
Understanding all this can help us come up with some cool tips and tricks.
In this Course, you’ll learn 9 Research Based Strategies, to manage your stress better, and boost your decision-making skills, even in the toughest of situations. You'll not only understand your brain better, but also get the tools you need, to handle stress and uncertainty like a Pro.
