If you don’t manage your emotions they will race out of control
Are you hypersensitive? Easily hurt, worried, or offended… it happens to a lot of people. The key to reducing hypersensitivity is to slow down and compose yourself. A deep breath in a hectic moment can calm down the soul.
Examples of events which may cause hypersensitivity
People tend to rush you when they want a response from you. And sometimes we fail ourselves — when we are rushed — with uncontrolled emotional outbursts.
• How are your reactions?
• Do you judge yourself poorly when you are put under pressure?
Slow down your world. Don’t allow the world to rush you
If you’re writing an exam the best advice I received is to leave your exam sheet closed for moment. Take in a big breath, pray for a good exam, and envision yourself having passed. Before, I used to open the exam sheet and rush to finish because the time allocated to complete the exam looked short.
When writing an exam composing yourself helps with hypersensitivity. You read the questions clearly unlike rushing through them missing key points. You write neatly where you would’ve scribbled leaving the examination marker confused. You finish on time because revision, practicing before the exam, and studying are your ally.
Speed is mostly applauded on the sports field… but as an emotionally intelligent person you learn to pace yourself. You set boundaries in your life and you stick to them. Respecting yourself plays a big part in managing your emotions. Don’t allow yourself to be rushed. Inform the other person not to push you for a response.
Take your time, speak calmly and clearly. Confidence in your response comes from having a composed demeanor. You can hear yourself speak. The world is a fast place but you can slow it down when you manage it.
You have the power to reduce the speed in your environment
The world follows your lead. Don’t go out of character. When you set boundaries it teaches you to be quiet for a bit longer and listen to the other person. Observe your environment. And respond in a non-confrontational manner.
Composing yourself reduces hypersensitivity and slows down your world.
