A step At A Time
Have you ever been in a state of utter confusion before? How easy was it to make decisions? Easy, was it? Oh, it wasn't! Alright, that's fine. No cause for worries. This article seeks to address the process of decision-making during confusion and when you are facing intense pressure from all sides.
While it's true that many books have been written on the phenomenon of confusion by different authors, with each one of these authors recommending one approach or the other to effectively tackle the status quo, it's noteworthy to pinpoint the place of calm and collectedness in applying these various principles.
The brain sends a warning signal to the whole body system whenever one is faced with danger or one's deeply immersed in a mire of dangerous situations. This cerebral signal is meant to stimulate alertness in the body system just to prevent eventualities.
Every body part receives an extra dose of supply for it to function more than it should. This is to ensure that the body system, both the internal and external organs, are well protected from any form of unenvisaged attack.
Whenever this is the case, many people rarely think straight, as thoughts would have become impulse-driven. It, even, becomes extremely difficult to stand or sit without noticeable fear-induced shock-shiver, reflecting in one's conduct.
The fact is that all of these are due to the heaviness of our thoughts in commensurate measure with the situation at hand. Whenever these two are head to head, confusion is bound to happen, until one learns how to keep both at bay. It's even a simple technique, you know?
I know you are wondering 'HOW! ' Yes, I know what's running through your mind. It's fine if that comes readily to your mind, because like you have been thinking, how can you not know it if it's simple as claimed?
You know, reasoning becomes a difficult task in a state of pressure, hence logic isn't applicable. But, if you can just handle the situation as it were by applying a step-at-a-time solution to the overwhelming confusion, you would realize, more often than not, that it's only your mind that magnified the situation--it's not as complex as it comes off.
You must learn how to apply the one-step-at-a-time rule of thumb to your situations just to fence-out the tendencies of confusion, or else, you would be overwhelmed by your situation. This affects your sanity, and it leads to mental vulnerability.
