How to manage our anger during a miscommunication with team members, how to prevent conflict and handle conflict. I think with these skills i can work better when i am in working life and of course life in ngee ann poly. And i will pass down these skills to whoever i know!
I have learn some strategies on managing anger During times of group discussion such as:
-Relaxation:
Some simple steps you can try:
o There are some simple steps to relax. Firstly,Breathe deeply, from your diaphragm; breathing from your chest won't relax you.Secondly, Picture your breath coming up from your "gut."
o Slowly repeat a calm word or phrase such as "relax," "take it easy." Repeat it to yourself while breathing deeply.
o Use imagery; visualize a relaxing experience, from either your memory or your imagination.
o Do some relaxing yoga-like exercises that can relax your muscles and make you feel much calmer.
-Cognitive Restrcturing :
•Remind yourself that getting angry is not going to fix anything, that it won't make you feel better as it will troubles u more.
•Remind yourself that the world is "not out to get you," you're just experiencing some of the rough spots of daily life.
•Logic defeats anger, because anger, even when it's justified, can quickly become irrational.
-Problem solving :
§The best attitude is to how u solve and handle your problems
§Always make your plan and give it the best to resolve.
§ It is better to face it with your best intentions and efforts and make a serious attempt to face it head-on, you will be less likely to lose patience
-Better communication :
•slow down and think through your responses
•Don't say the first thing that comes into your head, but slow down and think carefully about what you want to say
•At the same time, listen carefully to what the other person is saying and take your time before answering.
•It's natural to get defensive when you're criticized, but don't fight back. Instead, listen to what's underlying the words: the message that this person might feel neglected and unloved.
•Keeping your cool can keep the situation from becoming a disastrous one.
-Using humor :
ØPicture the word that you going to scold a person into a funny imaginative picture.
ØDraw a picture of what acutual thing might look like.
ØThere are two cautions:
ØFirstly, Don’t “laugh off” your problems
ØSecondly, Don’t give in to harsh , sarcastic humor
The above will help u to cool down and lessen the situation from getting worse.
I am very very satisfied me and my team mates manage our group assignments and conflict encountered.
We have manage our assignments quite well i say, we have include all the points needed in the presentation and we have find our time for doing these assignments even though i am different class from the other three. We also try to find better solutions when problems come in our way and we have never give up when problems come ahead! with these problems then we can improve together as a team! Even though we have some conflicts through those discussions, we could give way to each other and come up with good solutions! and will try to avoid any conflicts cause because we are one happy team! =D
I have developed better in self awareness. Aware of my own flaws and make it better even though it cannot be change and i have gain confident through the following weeks with life management skills lesson. I will not let any negative thoughts get through me instead think of the positive sides!
That's all i am going to blog ! thanks Teacher for teaching us so much about life management skills if not we will not be about to improve ourselves further!! =D
