Jim Kwik shares two concrete tools: prepare anchoring statements, calming phrases you repeat to steady yourself, and write down three things you're grateful for daily. Chronic stress shrinks the brain and impairs learning, so these practices matter.
Imagine developing a resilience toolkit, whether it's anchoring statements, like you could have these calming phrases ready, like I prepared for this, or one step at a time. Maybe you incorporate some form of gratitude practice where every day you're writing down and feeling 3 things that you're grateful for each day. And what does it do? It shifts your focus from stress to positivity, right? And be also thankful for all the things that you're not dealing with also as well. Remember, chronic Chronic stress will shrink your brain, and stress, not so great for your learning experience. We probably don't react really well when we're stressed. So what stress management techniques do you have in your toolbox?
