It often happens that one or another unpleasant situation significantly knocks the ground out from under our feet.
Negative thoughts, in turn, begin to slow down our progress, whatever it may be, as consciousness switches to our internal sensations.
How to learn to make decisions even when under stress?
It is enough to use the method of cognitive restructuring - a method that can help take control of the situation.
A simple solution to a complex problem
The main goal of cognitive restructuring is to balance the thinking process during negative feelings.
To redirect your energy in a more positive direction, you should first identify the strongest “bad” emotion.
Next, start to analyze why you feel the way you feel, whether there are specific reasons for this.
Assess how true the negative emotion is, and try to be as critical as possible.
Once you have completed the above steps, you will realize that you can now start making decisions.
Important note: Rationalization should be used whenever you are overcome by any overly intense sensations.
