Recognizing Overload Marla Gottschalk
Recognizing Overload Marla Gottschalk Photo by Fab Lentz on Unsplash As human beings we often forget that we are fragile. We push well beyond our limits, forgetting what we require to stay productive. We make promises we shouldnt â" and say yes far too often. I think youll share my opinion that we all fall prey to this dynamic at one time or another. No one is immune. So, it is with great remorse that I admit that yesterday Power Point caused my undoing. (The details are unimportant. However, my response was another story.) Im not speaking of a brief moment of aggravation with an accompanying quick recovery. I refer to a full-blown toddler moment, where I fantasized about throwing down my pen, flipping my desk and slipping away into the madding crowd. It was an unusual reaction and I took note of it. (This reminded me of a holiday shopping trip with one of my boys. As the stroller passed the toy department, there were nearly 1000 Barney dinosaurs mounted on the store pillars. This provoked a fit of unchecked screaming like no other I can recall.) To be fair, this is what I was feeling. But, hold on. Im not going to move to guilt and outright embarrassment. Ive realized this auspicious moment had nothing to do with Power Point un-saving my work. It was delivered courtesy of the stress (both inside and outside of work) that had accumulated â" much like peeling layers of toxic lead paint. Im sure this has happened to you. A response far out of sync with what has actually happened. This begins with emotional and/or physical exhaustion. This comes with over-extending your nervous system. This is related to not feeding your ying or ego, or whatever part of your psyche that may be starving. It can come from trying your very hardest to ensure things will go well and they still go awry. Yes, this is life. However, it remains awfully difficult to digest at times. Most of us fail to recognize when we are at the brink â" much less take action to move away from that brink. Here is what you should do if you find yourself peering over the edge: Explore methods of self-support, which my clinical counterparts strongly recommend. Add a healthy dose of mindfulness to your daily routine. Feed your musical soul. Listen to the music that helps you feel lifted and inspired. Indulge a hobby. (I find hobbies a distraction from my core career goals. However, healthy distraction are just that â" healthy!) Dwell on the positive signs of forward career evolution. Thoughtfully reminisce about the people that you have enjoyed working worked with recently (and why). Read for one hour each day. Getting lost in the thoughts and experiences of others can change our perspective. Learn from your mistakes. List the situations that didnt end the way you had hoped. Develop strategies to to change that course, if presented again. Take a side path. Learn something new. (Scroll through the options Udemy or Lynda.com) We all have the capacity to evolve for the better. If you feel you need professional help, do so. Reach out. There are wonderful resources ou there that can serve on your career Board of Directors. This is only a start â" and personally I hope to avoid a repeat occurrence. But, no guarantees. I forget myself sometimes. Im only human. Dr. Marla Gottschalk is an Industrial/Organizational Psychologist. She is the Director of Organizational Development at Allied Talent.

We have more women leaders than ever before. Bad: There is still a major pay gap; women make $0.77 to every dollar a man makes Money issues are a major cause of divorce. Women are vastly outnumbered in leadership positions. Money has a lot more to do with emotions than your bank account. Money (and everything having to do with money) is about 50% emotion and 50% action. We need to start becoming aware of when a story relating to money is actually yours or someone elseâs and then start changing the story. Women need to become open to solutions. You can start by creating money management practices that are actually fun, finding money mentors and create your A Team. Talk to your spouse/significant other about money. Put yourself in situations where you can practice asking for more such as sales calls and negotiations. Differences Between Men and Women at Work Communicating Negotiating Promoting Perfecting Competing Networking Managing Men Solutions Embrace the competition Use humor Be assertive Donât shy away from sports talk Coach support Build trust We hope you enjoyed the webinar!
