Getting upset or alarmed can seem like natural reactions to a problem.
失望，驚恐似乎是遇到問題時的自然反應(yīng)。
Here are a few tips to help you remain calm in the face of the storm:
以下幾點(diǎn)建議可以幫你在遇到突發(fā)情況時保持冷靜:
Dont Panic You are better able to find a solution if you arent panicking. If you can keep your head when others are losing theirs, you will be able to make a clear decision in the chaos.
不要驚慌-沒有驚慌時最好能找出解決辦法。如果在別人不夠清醒時，你還能保持頭腦清醒，你就能在混亂中做出一個明確的決定。
There Arent Many True Emergencies - My time as a Naval Officer taught me about true emergencies. In the military, when there is a problem, people can get hurt or die. This is not usually the case when the office copier or email server goes down. Keep things in perspective. There are very few true emergencies in life.
沒有那么多的緊急情況-在我還是海軍的時候，海軍軍官就教我有關(guān)的緊急情況。那段時間，有問題發(fā)生的時候，要么是受傷，要么是死亡。辦公室復(fù)印近或郵件服務(wù)器出問題的情況也不頻繁。事情總在預(yù)期范圍內(nèi)。生活中很少有緊急情況發(fā)生。
Less Talking, More Doing - Many people will spend time talking about the problem. Be the one thatdoessomething about it. I have seen executives talkabout problems while their entire company burned down. Stop critiquing the fire and grab a bucket of water.
少說，多做-很多人會花很多時間討論這些問題。做一個做事的人。我曾看到過，整間公司在遭遇火災(zāi)時，高管人員還在高談闊論。停止高談闊論，提水滅火。
Avoid the Fight or Flight - When you are stressed, your body will want to go into fight or flight. Your body was designed to keep you safe from danger, but its natural reflexes arent always the best solution against a project gone awry. Keep your emotions in check and ensure that your physical reflexes dont make bad decisions for you.
避免戰(zhàn)斗或者逃跑-有壓力的時候，身體會想要戰(zhàn)斗或是打架。你的身體生來就是為了保證你的安全的，但是對某件事來說，身體本能的反應(yīng)并不總是最好的解決辦法。整理情緒，確保本能的反應(yīng)不會做出不好的決定。
Head Into The Problem While everyone else is running away, true leaders walk into a problem. Sticking your head in the sand only makes things worse. Instead of trying to ignore the situation, get to the heart of the issue as soon as possible. Only then can you address it.
解決問題-當(dāng)他人在逃跑的時候，真正的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者會了解問題。逃避只會讓情況越來越糟，與其忽視這些問題，還不如盡可能地解決核心問題，只有這樣才能夠解決問題。
How Will You React?When you find yourself ready to lose it, take a step back. 發(fā)現(xiàn)自己要失去它的時候，后退一步。 Ask, Is this truly an emergency? 問，這是真的困難? Keep your head when others are losing theirs. 當(dāng)其他人都頭腦混亂的時候，請保持頭腦清醒。 And youll find that you are that much closer to a solution. 你會發(fā)現(xiàn)你會更接近解決問題的辦法。
