Pressure quote

Pressure pushing down on me
Pressing down on you, no man ask for
Under pressure that burns a building down
Splits a family in two
Puts people on streets

"Under Pressure"


You ain't gotta make your mind up
You ain't gotta make your mind up right now
Right now, don't rush, no pressure
You ain't gotta make your mind up
You ain't gotta make your mind up right now
Calm down, don't rush, no pressure

Leaders in all organizations must take responsibility for recognizing when someone is feeling overwhelmed to the point of exhaustion or paralysis, and to understand that this is only a response, and not a failing or weakness. We need to encourage a culture that views managing pressure as being as important as servicing a car -- vital to keep it operating smoothly and reliably.

You have to learn to pace yourself
Pressure
You're just like everybody else
Pressure
You've only had to run so far
So good
But you will come to a place
Where the only thing you feel
Are loaded guns in your face
And you'll have to deal with
Pressure

"Pressure"


Some people handle pressure gracefully. Others shut down, act out and can't function.

"Grace Under Pressure", Ebony, April 2003


Individuals who falter less under pressure than others have a different road map for handling pressure.... Your natural tools are your thoughts, physiological responses, body movements, voice, and senses. They determine how you handle pressure, regardless of your level of expertise, abilities, or good intentions. People who are less susceptible to pressure's negative effects use these tools much more effectively than those who are overwhelmed by pressure. In a pressure moment, they use them to counteract pressure's negative effects.

TODD STOCKER

Becoming the Fulfilled Leader


Handle pressure quickly and effectively. The longer you let it go on, the more damage it will do internally and externally. If you find that you are constantly under pressure at work, or in life, stop for a moment and consider that you have a choice to accept pressure or not. You see, effective work/life balance comes from an easy well-coordinated approach to it. All too often you can slip into the habit of accepting excess pressure as a way of life, so rather than waiting until you feel like a time bomb ready to explode, take steps today to lighten the load.

MICHAEL ATMA
